The FTP Site Explained E. Hamilton DLI Atlantic Training Workshop, 2009

The Collection is... Where? DLI FTP Site Web collection Plus Census Products Census Geography Health Geography Census 1901, DLI Mirror Site (UA) DLI FTP collection plus DLI Web Site Most standard data products dliftp.library.ualberta.ca ftp.statcan.gc.ca IDLS/Equinox, NESSTAR, etc. By Mail (for CD-ROMS) DLI Products not wholly owned by Statistics Canada Canadian Addiction Survey 2004 Canadian Heart Health Survey Citizenship and Immigration Canada DFO Catch and Effort Data Youth Smoking Survey Requires secure shell ftp

Refresher: the Survival Guide Section 6: Accessing and Citing DLI Data

DLI FTP Directory (Why the duplicate listings? Is one better than the other?)

What is in the folders? Readme and/or dirlist.txt By survey and language (cchs / esdd), by year, by product (doc/data), by type of file (.dat, sas, sps, cd.zip etc.)

Tip of Hat to Utilities! If we need it, Jackie has put it here. He promises to add a txt file to explain what everything is used for “really soon!”.

Geography: only on FTP!

Five Questions to Find Your Way… 1.What product do I want? 2.What language do I prefer? 3.What software format do I need? 4.What layers or coverage do I require? 5.What geographical hierarchy do I need? 6.Which file do I need? Show me!

1. What Product do I Need? Attribute CARS Concordance Documentation Geosuite Maps PCCF PCFC D Spatial (This is where the gems are) Chose a product subdirectory /geography/census2001/spatial/…

2. What language do I prefer? English or French the choice is yours!

3. What Software Format Do I Want? MapInfo ArcInfo /geography/census2001/spatial/Arcinfo… It’s a matter of choice… what software is your patron using? Spatial

4. What layers / coverage do I require? Census Boundary Files Road Network Files Skeletal Road Network Files Ecumene (Population density) Water /geography/census2001/spatial/Arcinfo/CBF… Spatial ArcInfo CBF RNFSRNFEcumene

5. What geographical hierarchy do I need? CANADA PROV/TERR CARER FED CMA/CA Non-CMA/CA CD CCS CSD DA CT Block CMACA CT No CT MIZTerr. DPL UA Rural

5. What geographical hierarchy do I need? National: ccs, cd, cma, csd, ct, da, dpp, dpl, er, pr, ua Provincial: ccs csd ct da CMA: csd, dt, da Extra: water /geography/census2001/spatial/Arcinfo/CBF/provincial/da

6. What File do I Need? /geography/census2001/spatial/Arcinfo/CBF/provincial… G91001.exe decoded is a geographic file for the 1991 census for the CMA of St. John’s It is easy when proper place names are used, but know where to look up codes for province and for CMA/CAs to make your selection faster.
