East View the Global Census Archive® (GCA)

East View the Global Census Archive® (GCA) is multi-platform global aggregation initiative to collect the world's census data in all its formats.

GIS census products include everything needed for researchers to easily access these large complex datasets which have undergone rigorous quality control for completeness and translation from vernacular to English.

The files contain GIS census data as well as all available published volumes, supporting questionnaires and other census ephemera. Each census comes with an East View-produced census catalog, which serves as a finding aid and provides historical context.

Please note: Lund University has purchased two GIS-files. Download the files here:
