POPGROUP Users Group (Scotland)

In order to run population projections it is necessary have the appropriate software package. The National Records of Scotland (NRS), formerly General Register Office for Scotland (GROS), along with a number of local authorities, uses POPGROUP software to produce population and household projections for sub-national areas of Scotland. POPGROUP is an Excel-based system developed by the Cathie Marsh Centre for Census and Survey Research (CCSR) at the University of Manchester that uses standard demographic methods to generate projections.

A group has been set up to allow POPGROUP users in Scotland to meet and share knowledge and experiences.
