GIS tutorial for analyzing low-income foreclosures

A quick heads-up to readers interested in all things GIS: Eric Schultheis has posted a new, detailed GIS tutorial for identifying where low-income homeowners reside, to better target foreclosure related services. The tutorial uses the well regarded DataPlace web-based GIS platform, in combo with instructions on using the GISTools freeware to extract the data for use with DataPlace. Just the latest in a long series of posts at the LSNC’s Race Equity Project site to help advocates take advantage of GIS and other resources to better understand race issues. Good stuff.
