Notis

Put a population estimate behind your service area

Use Census population estimates to add scale to service area planning and market reviews.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Get Population Estimates

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

Why this helps

Service area discussions can rely on rough assumptions when population estimates are scattered across sources.

  • Retrieve population estimates for specified geographies.
  • Use the requested Census vintage and dataset.
  • Support service area planning with a documented data source.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AgencyZoom and Census bureau once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve Population Estimates Program data for the geography, vintage, and dataset included in the request, then report the returned estimate and scope.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real service area and verify the vintage and geographic coverage.

Questions about this workflow

Can this calculate a custom service area from multiple places?

The request needs to provide supported geographies. Custom boundaries or aggregations may need to be supplied separately.

Will it use the latest vintage automatically?

The request should specify a vintage and dataset. Confirm those inputs match the planning question.
