Map your Census data: new ABS innovation

For the first time Australians can now map Census data for their region through the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) website.

In preparation for the release of 2006 Census data later this year, the ABS has released the innovative ‘QuickMaps’ product loaded with 2001 Census statistics.

QuickMaps gives fast, easy access to thematic maps of Census data for a specific region, completely free of charge. This allows a range of users to easily understand their community and how it is changing.

This is the first time the ABS has released interactive thematic data on its website.

With over half a million maps to choose from, every Australian has the opportunity to discover something about themselves and the rest of the nation.
