Enabling Research

GURDC is a joint project by the Census Bureau and MDI, which provides a secure data lab to enable research on restricted data sets.

MDI researchers and data scientists work together to aggregate and curate data from different sources in order to make them more accessible.

MDI data scientists have developed an analytic engine that enables researchers to easily construct aggregated variables from textual sources.
