8 years ago

Answered By Tracy L

Hi, Cenus data means data collected in a national level, a geographer can use this data to track human patterns within roads or landscape usage. Geographers may also use cenus data to determine health facilities  statistics, but with this question, it can be broad to what the geographer is looking for within cenus data. i hope this helped.

According to Statistics Canada: 

"Geographers use data from the census and surveys to create thematic maps for a range of subjects, such as land cover by major drainage areas, the proportion of the population by level of education and by census division, and the proportion of obese people by health region."

For more information, see their website at
