2001 & 2006 Census in 2011 Boundaries

Question

I have a researcher who wishes to obtain census variables from the 2001 and 2006 census, adjusted for 2011 census boundaries (dissemination area & census tract level). She wants population and dwelling type.

I see that Geosuite can provide 2001 in 2006 and 2006 in 2011 for population by census tract, but (I think) that’s it. Am I missing any other available resource, or, can her request be produced on a custom basis?

Answer

You might want to look at SimplyMap. I believe it provides “adjusted” Census Data for 2001 and 2006 at 2011 boundaries.
