Trigger

Action
Get Population Estimates
Tool to retrieve population estimates program (pep) data for a specified vintage and dataset. use when you need population or demographic estimates for specific geographies.
Why this helps

- Add population context early
- Compare explicit vintages
- Reduce research backlog
