CAMEO: Newsroom

Population data from the 2010 Census is now available for use in MARPLOT

On April 5, 2011 the 2010 population files for Census Blocks, Block Groups, Tracts and Counties were made available for download in MARPLOT.

Updating Your Existing Population Data

If you downloaded population data in MARPLOT prior to April 5, 2011 you have one or more data files from the 2000 Census on your computer.  To update these files, use the "Check for Updates" option in the MARPLOT Help menu to download new 2010 Census data files."

Note: If you're running MARPLOT version 4.0, 4.0.1, 4.1, 4.1.1, or 4.1.2, you will need to perform a few extra steps:
  • After the data file download is complete, exit MARPLOT.
  • Browse to the location of your MARPLOT program folder (e.g., C:\Program Files\MARPLOT).
  • Double-click on the "reindex.bat" file, which will allow MARPLOT to recognize the newly-downloaded population files.
  • You can then restart MARPLOT, and the new population data should be available.      

Getting New Population Data

When you download census block population files (either with a Get Population feature or using the Download Manager), they will automatically be the 2010 Census files. However, if you download other Census levels (e.g., Block Groups, Counties, and Tracts) be aware that those files will still be 2000 data, and you may need to update those to 2010 data at a later date, when they become available

If you have questions or problems, please contact CAMEO User Support at (703) 227-7650 or RMPRC@epacdx.net.
