1.1970 US Census Data Now Available

1970 Census (2nd Count) is now available in Counting California.

This data set contains demographic items tabulated for each person (i.e., 100 percent count of persons), including data on age, race, ethnicity, sex, marital status, and information on schooling, labor force status, and children, as well as details on occupation and income.

Search tip: From the advanced search page you can limit your search to particular data set(s).

This data set is made available as a result of collaboration between CDL and Berkeley's UC Data staff, Ilona Einowski and Fred Gey.

2. UC Image Service News

UC’s shared image collections are accessed using Luna Insight.

a. Luna Insight Software version 5.1 Released

The following are key enhancements to the user interface. A complete list of new features in Insight version 5.1 is available on the Luna web site.

Java client:

• Re-ordering of Image Groups based on a custom order. Image Groups can now be ordered to meet your own needs. Simply create an Image Group; add images; and drag and drop them into any order you choose, then save.
• New presentations maintain the Image Group’s sort order when the presentation is created.
• Annotations are now included in Image Export data.
• Annotations and metadata are now included in the Presentation Export to HTML, PowerPoint on Windows, and Keynote.
• Users may now specify the number of items per page (50, 100, or 250).

Browser Insight:

• BrowserInsight now supports Safari 1.2+ (Apple’s web browser).
• Users may now resize the image workspace’s floating data window.

To download the Java client version 5.1 for either Mac or PC, follow the instructions on the Directory of CDL-Licensed Content page.

b. Luna Insight Software Now hosted at CDL — URLs Changed

Following the conclusion of the Image Demonstrator project in December 2004, the CDL committed to hosting the shared UC image collections using Luna Insight for at least two years. As of March 2005, the UC image collections in Insight are being hosted at CDL rather than by Luna Imaging.

As a result, the URLs to the browser version of Insight have changed. If you are using the persistent URL (PID) shown below to link to a collection, you do not need to make any changes as the PIDs have remained the same.
