Get decennial Census data for a place

Start with the geography and question, then retrieve the decennial variables that support your analysis.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Get Decennial Census Data

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

Why this helps

Decennial data can be difficult to pull consistently when each new place requires rebuilding the query.

  • Retrieve decennial data for a specified vintage and dataset.
  • Focus each query on a defined geography and Census variables.
  • Make recurring location research easier to start and review.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Airtop and Census bureau once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in plain language or in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Describe the decennial vintage, dataset, geography, and variables to retrieve.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one geography and verify the requested vintage and dataset.
