This user's guide takes you through the steps on how to use both the PRED Databank & PopMap software. It also gives a detailed description of the PRED Bank data set. The Population, Resources, Environment & Development Databank (PRED Databank version 2.1) presents data series dealing with various aspects of population, the labour force, economic growth, agriculture, & natural resource use & their trends from 1961 to 1990. The PopMap Retrieval System (PopMap version 3.01), which accompanies the database, makes it possible to generate thematic maps of PRED Bank variables, to manipulate data & save selected data in a choice of data formats.
