We will no longer support these segmentations functions from the 1st of January 2021. For a similar functionality, we recommend using Data Observatory from our Phython library CARTOframes instead.

+ The Demographic Snapshot enables you to collect demographic reports around a point location. For example, you can take the coordinates of a coffee shop and find the average population characteristics, such as total population, educational attainment, housing and income information around that location. You can use raw street addresses by combining the Demographic Snapshot with CARTO's geocoding features. If you need help creating coordinates from addresses, see the [Geocoding Functions]({{site.dataservicesapi_docs}}/reference/#geocoding-functions) documentation. _**Note:** The Demographic Snapshot functions are only available for the United States._ diff --git a/docs/developer-center/reference/09-segmentation-functions.md b/docs/developer-center/reference/09-segmentation-functions.md index 1d69cd2..bc7859f 100644 --- a/docs/developer-center/reference/09-segmentation-functions.md +++ b/docs/developer-center/reference/09-segmentation-functions.md @@ -1,5 +1,9 @@ ## Segmentation Functions +

We will no longer support these segmentations functions from the 1st of January 2021. For a similar functionality, we recommend using Data Observatory from our Phython library CARTOframes instead.

+
+ The Segmentation Snapshot functions enable you to determine the pre-calculated population segment for a location. Segmentation is a method that divides a populations into subclassifications based on common traits. For example, you can take the a store location and determine what classification of population exists around that location. If you need help creating coordinates from addresses, see the [Geocoding Functions]({{site.dataservicesapi_docs}}/reference/#geocoding-functions) documentation. _**Note:** The Segmentation Snapshot functions are only available for the United States. Our first release (May 18, 2016) is derived from Census 2010 variables. Our next release will be based on Census 2014 data. For the latest information, see the [Open Segments](https://github.com/CartoDB/open-segments) project repository._
