I just want to reproduce some nice papers from CATMOG!
Robin Lovelace proposed the idea of RATMOG.
The paper from Openshaw can be find here : https://github.com/qmrg/CATMOG/blob/Main/38-maup-openshaw.pdf
Iowa counties come from OpenStreetMap (OpenStreetMap contributors, 2022), dowloaded via overpass turbo with query-raw_iowa.txt
and wrangled in Iow_county.R
.
Population data come from National Historical GIS:
Steven Manson, Jonathan Schroeder, David Van Riper, Tracy Kugler, and Steven Ruggles. IPUMS National Historical Geographic Information System: Version 17.0 [dataset]. Minneapolis, MN: IPUMS. 2022. http://doi.org/10.18128/D050.V17.0
iowa_pop.R
record the step to convert it to something similar that Openshaw used.
I am still searching from election data.
