In SeerMapper: A Quick Way to Map U.S. Rates and Data of U.S. States, Counties, Census Tracts, or Seer Registries using 2000 and 2010 U.S. Census Boundaries

Description

This dataset contains a data.frame table used to provide the county level information for all of the counties in the U. S. to the SeerMapper package. It provides the mapping of the county 5 digit FIPS code to the state 2 digit FIPS code, the associated Seer Registry abbreviation, the county name, and statistics on the number of census tracts in each county for the 2000 and 2010 census years. The information was originally stored in the Seer_stcoIDtosaID dataset and the coxx_dxx datasets for each county and was moved to this data.frame when the 2000 and 2010 census year county information was consolidated.

Usage

data(co99_d00)

Format

The dataset contains a single data.frame named co99_d00 that supports both the 2000 and 2010 census years.

Since a registry area may contain multiple counties, this data.frame is used to mark each county with the Seer Registry abbrevation it is a member. The 20 U. S. Seer registry areas are identify by the following character abbreviations (saID):

saID	stID	Name
AK-NAT	02	Alaska Natives
AZ-NAT	04	Arizona Indians
CA-OTH	06	California Other (not SF-Oakland, SJ-Monterey, LA areas)
CA-SF	06	California San Fran/Oakland
CA-SJ	06	California San Jose/Monterey
CA-LA	06	California Los Angeles
CT	09	Connecticut
GA-OTH	13	Georgia Other (not Atlanta or Rural areas)
GA-ATL	13	Georgia Atlanta
GA-RUR	13	Georgia Rural
HI	15	Hawaii
IA	19	Iowa
KY	21	Kentucky
LA	22	Louisiana
MI-DET	26	Michigan Detroit
NJ	34	New Jersery
NM	35	New Mexico
OK-CHE	40	Oklahoma Cherokee Nation
UT	49	Utah
WA-SEA	53	Washington Seattle-Puget Sound

The above table also contains the Registry's full name and the state's 2 digit FIPS code where the registry resides. For more information on the NCI Seer Registry boundary data and information, refer to the document section on the sa99_d00 dataset.

Details

The co99_d00 dataset contains the following fields (columns):

row.names

= a character vector equal to the 5 digit U. S. state and county FIPS code.

coName

= a character vector of the county's name.

saID

= a character vector identifying the Seer Registry Abbreviation containing the county. If the county is not a member of a registry, then the field is set to NA.

c_X_00

= A numeric value of the X coordinate of the centroid of the county in the 2000 census.

c_Y_00

= A numeric value of the Y coordinate of the centroid of the county in the 2000 census.

c_X_10

= A numeric value of the X coordinate of the centroid of the county in the 2010 census.

c_Y_10

= A numeric value of the Y coordinate of the centroid of the county in the 2010 census.

tracts00

= An integer value of the number of 2000 census tracts contained in the county.

tracts10

= An integer value of the number of 2010 census tracts contained in the county.

y

= An integer indicating which census years the county was present. 1 = 2000, 2 = 2010, and 3 = both.

HSAID

= A character vector containing the 3 digit HSA number that contains the county.
