I previously used IPUMS Terra for population and environmental data. When was it decommissioned, and where can I now find the microdata and area-level population data that were available through it? Also, where can I find boundary shapefiles and raster data?
Navigate to the IPUMS Terra homepage (terra.ipums.org). Locate and click on the 'decommissioning page' link within the 'Decommissioning Notice'. Identify the month and year when IPUMS Terra was decommissioned. Identify which IPUMS project now hosts the 'Microdata' previously available on Terra. Identify which IPUMS project now hosts the 'Area-level population data' previously available on Terra. Identify where 'Boundary shapefiles' are now available. Identify where 'Raster data' is now available.
State that IPUMS Terra was decommissioned in October 2022. Confirm that Microdata is now available via IPUMS International. Confirm that Area-level population data is now available via IPUMS IHGIS. Confirm that Boundary shapefiles are available from IPUMS International and/or IHGIS. Confirm that Raster data is available from the data producers, with links on the raster data sources page.
