Notis

Spot population changes in the markets you watch

Get a recurring population estimate update for selected places, with a short summary of what changed in the returned data.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Get Population Estimates

Retrieves population estimates and related demographic or population-change data.

Why this helps

Population checks fall off the list when estimates must be refreshed and summarized manually.

  • Keep selected market population estimates on a regular review cadence.
  • Turn data retrieval into a brief that is easier to scan.
  • Use the chosen Census vintage and dataset consistently.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notis to Census bureau once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3Describe the geographies, vintage, dataset, and population measures you want summarized.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real geography and verify the chosen dataset returns the measures you expect.

Questions about this workflow

Can this calculate a growth rate?

It can summarize returned estimates across time when the selected data supports comparison. If a historical baseline is not available in the result, provide one or ask for the missing baseline.

Which vintage and dataset should I request?

Choose the vintage and dataset suited to your planning question. The available options and geographic coverage depend on the Census dataset.
