News included can come from data such as public records like crime reports, to neighbor discussions, to photos people have taken in your neighborhood. Esri ZIP Code Lookup tool lets you learn about local populationMonday, January 17th, 2011Not exactly new, but notable is Esri’s ZIP Code Lookup tool that allows anyone to enter a ZIP Code in the U.S. and learn about those who live in that area. Demographic and market information such as income, employment, vehicle preferences, and leisure activities are among the data the tool will display. To use the tool, the user enters a ZIP Code, then the browser-based Silverlight application instantly generates three of what is known as Tapestry segments for the area in question. Esri’s Tapestry Segmentation system classifies U.S. residential neighborhoods into unique market segments that are based on socioeconomic and demographic data. |
