Notis

Keep decennial Census context ready for planning

Set a recurring review for the decennial vintage, dataset, geographies, and measures your team uses. Notis retrieves the data and sends a concise run report.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Get Decennial Census Data

Retrieves decennial census statistics on population, demographics, or housing.

Why this helps

When teams revisit the same locations, the relevant Census context can be difficult to find in old research notes.

  • Revisit the same chosen data scope on a schedule.
  • Receive a concise summary of returned decennial data.
  • Keep recurring research from becoming another manual reminder.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Abyssale and Census bureau once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe the decennial data summary to produce.
  • 3Pick the recurring schedule trigger and specify the vintage, dataset, geography, and measures in the instruction.
  • 4Choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real geography before relying on the recurring report.

Questions about this workflow

Does the schedule choose the geographies automatically?

No. Specify the geographies, vintage, dataset, and measures in the automation instruction.

Will this detect changes between runs?

Notis can compare returned results if the report scope and prior baseline are available. The automation does not assume a baseline that has not been supplied or saved.
