Replication files for: "Censuscoding: a privacy-preserving alternative to geocoding"

Geocoding is an important tool for research, but precise street addresses and geospatial coordinates may risk revealing personally identifiable information if not used carefully. Censuscoding is a self-contained tool for determining the Census block group that contains a street address, to solve this challenge. Censuscoding maintains privacy by providing an anonymous view of location through block groups, which vary between 600 to 3,000 individuals in population.

These replication files are used to build the lookup data distributed with censuscoding v0.2.0. Please see the corresponding GitHub repositories https://github.com/ripl-org/censuscoding and https://github.com/ripl-org/censuscoding-data.
