	INTRODUCTION
		Geographic area codes are assigned in bibliographic records to bring out by code the geographic areas that appear or are implied in the headings assigned to the work being cataloged.
		Codes are assigned to works of biography (individual or collective) and to works of genealogy, for the location of the individual, group, or family if geographic areas are localized.
		In this case, the code for the annexed entity is discontinued, and the annexed entity is assigned the code for the annexing entity.

	INTRODUCTION
		Geographic area codes are assigned in bibliographic records to bring out by code the geographic areas that appear or are implied in the headings assigned to the work being cataloged.
		Codes are assigned for both the place of origin and current location of peoples who are in an area other than their permanent homeland, including travelers, temporary residents, aliens, and foreign students.
		In this case, the code for the annexed entity is discontinued, and the annexed entity is assigned the code for the annexing entity.

	Geographic Information Systems: A Glossary
		A map with areas colored or shaded such that the darkness or lightness of an area symbol is proportional to the density of the mapped phenomena or is symbolic of the class.
		Geographic data are generally entered into a GIS database via a digitizer, scanner, or keyboard.
		A geographic component of the earth's surface that has both spatial and attribute data associated with it (e.g., well, road, lake).

	Geographic Coding of Administrative Records--Past Experience and Current Research
		In this case, the code was salvaged by keeping the reported place code and allocating a value to the missing county and/or MCD code.
		Implicit in the coding process is the assumption that the geographic distribution is the same for filers who move into the ZIP Code area, filers who move out of the ZIP Code area, and filers who do not move, and that the relationship does not change over time.
		Coding to county by using the ZIP Code in the mailing address does not assume that the mailing address is the same as the residence address, but it does implicitly assume that they are in the same county.

	What is the IPUMS? (Site not responding. Last check: )
		No geographic subdivisions of states are identified, but for most states it is possible to distinguish rural from urban areas and metropolitan from non-metropolitan areas.
		For instance, household heads/householders are coded "1000" in the original 1910 sample, "01" in the 1940 sample, and "0" in the 1960 sample.
		The codes and frequencies table for the general codes has no blanks, indicating that all categories are available in all census years.

		Code apprentices, student teachers, and trainees in the occupation for which they are training.
		Geographic codes are listed in this document with a map of Alaska that lists all the valid codes.
		In this case, the apprentice is coded the same as a carpenter (47-2031).

	Geographic Coding of Administrative Records -- Current Research in Zip/Sector-To-County Coding Process
		Geographic coding to large cities using 5-digit ZIP code (only) may be feasible.
		Geographic coding to such subcounty areas using 5-digit ZIP Codes would not be very good at all.
		This section: (1) notes differences in the coding processes that will impact on the uncoded rates; (2) looks at the number and size of ZIP codes that are uncoded; (3) looks at the number and percent uncoded by state; and finally (4) looks at the number of uncodeds by county.

	Coding Technologies \| products and technologies \|\| SBR explained
		Since the overall bandwidth available for all services in a certain geographic area (a network cell) is limited, the system operator has to take measures to allow as many users as possible in that network cell to access mobile communication services in parallel.
		It is evident that for commercial reasons, the network operators have to ensure that they use their available spectrum as efficiently as possible by means of highly efficient speech and audio codecs.
		The reconstruction is efficient for harmonic as well as for noise-like components and allows for proper shaping in the time domain as well as in the frequency domain.

		Data for respondent firms by Hispanic or Latino origin, race, and gender are presented by industry classifications at the U.S. level and by size of firm (employment and receipts).

		Languages are coded using both the ISO DIS 639-3-compliant codes used in the 15th Edition Ethnologue and a legacy code compatible with earlier versions of the Ethnologue.
		For clarity, legacy codes are given in the traditional upper case, while ISO 639-3 codes are given in lower case.
		ISO 639-3 codes with upper-case U.S. government FIPS 10-4 country codes (the recommended standard for those already using the widely-used FIPS standard for country coding, and for those doing historical research, since FIPS codes represent consistent geographic entities over time).

	Basic Monthly Survey - Geographic Coding: Metro Areas (Since September 1995)
		The specific metropolitan identifiers on this file are based on the Office of Management and Budget's June 30, 1993 definitions.
		Individual central cities are identified by the appropriate central city code and the FIPS MSA/PMSA code.
		It is recommended that this code in conjunction with the modified household metropolitan statistical area residence status code (GEMETSTA) be used for tallying metropolitan residence status for national and other grouped data.

	Empirical Legal Studies: Geographic Coding for Law Schools Now Available for Download
		In our 2006 ranking article, Andy Morriss and I documented the close relationship between geographic proximity and the number of large firms who participate in a school's OCI program.
		To help capture these patterns, I have just posted new metropolitan area codes on the HM Rankings website, which link together Census Bureau FIPS codes for place, county, CBSA (Core Based Statistical Area), and CSA (Consolidated Statistical Area), to the 2008 ABA Official Guide dataset.
		For an overview of the CBSA and CSA coding system, which became the primary standard in 2003, see the documents posted at this link.

	Hand Coding — Refenestration Daily.
		The Dallas Camera Club holds a photo scavenger hunt each year — sometimes it’s in downtown Dallas while other times it’s elsewhere in the metroplex.
		(It’s confined to a general geographic area each year to help level the playing field.) Indeed, this year’s scavenger hunt was held downtown on a Sunday morning a few weeks ago.
		Reflections — it hadn’t rained recently, so street-reflections weren’t really in the cards, but there were other reflective things to find.
