Released/updated on: 2015-06-18
Geographic coverage: Canada, Sweden, Great Britain, United States, Norway, Ireland, Egypt, Denmark, Mexico, Germany, Iceland, Albania
The North Atlantic Population Project (NAPP), which was created by research teams in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden, is a massive integrated cross-national microdatabase that provides a baseline for studies of demographic change. This project improves the NAPP by tripling the size of the database to approximately 365 million records by adding 40 new datasets for the period 1787 to 1930 from Albania, Great Britain, Canada, Denmark, Egypt, Iceland, Ireland, Germany, Norway, Mexico, Sweden, and the United States. It also creates linked national panels and merges NAPP with the Integrated Public Use Microdata Series (IPUMS). NAPP provides a baseline for the study of changes in demography and health of European and North American populations. In each country, it provides the earliest census microdata available. It makes available some of the world's largest and longest-running cross-sectional and longitudinal data sources.
