     Census Bureau Releases New Version of TIGERweb

The U.S. Census Bureau announces the release of a new version of
TIGERweb, a Web-based map viewer from the agency’s Topologically
Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing System (TIGER) database.

TIGERweb allows users to view and query census geographic areas and
features such as roads, railroads, rivers, lakes and other larger bodies
of water. It currently displays boundaries, names and codes for 2010
Census legal and statistical geographic areas, such as counties, cities,
towns and townships, census tracts and urban areas. In addition,
TIGERweb contains population and housing unit counts from the 2010
Census for each of the geographic areas.

To access TIGERweb, go to: <http://tigerweb.geo.census.gov

In addition to the TIGERweb viewer, the TIGER data also is available as
a Web service via the Open Geospatial Consortium Web Map Service
standard. Users who have a client that supports the Web Map Service
standard may access the TIGERweb service at
