data	census data as obtained from get_census call, grouped by TongfenID
meta	list with variables and aggregation information as obtained from meta_for_vectors
geo	logical, should also aggregate geographic data
na.rm	logical, should NA values be ignored or carried through.
quiet	logical, don't emit messages if set to 'TRUE'

Value

data frame with variables aggregated to new common geography

Examples

# Aggregate population from DA level to grouped by CT_UID
## Not run: 
geo <- cancensus::get_census("CA06",regions=list(CSD="5915022"),level='DA')
meta <- meta_for_additive_variables("CA06","Population")
result <- aggregate_data_with_meta(geo %>% group_by(CT_UID),meta)

## End(Not run)
