Dear ACS DUG,
I have posted an early Windows installer for a package that makes tract level synthetic data from PUMS data. It has the feature of being able to merge in the Supplemental Poverty Measure PUMS data files should you want to use variables in that dataset. See dorerfoundation.org/software for more information and a link to the GitHub webpage.
Feedback welcome, The package is an early development version.

A Linux (developed on Ubuntu) installer is also available. You need gcc to compile one C routine.
One more thing,
Nonprofit 501(c)(3) and government entities have access to free support to get the package working (including zoom sessions)

Dear DUG,
I have updated the Windows installer 31 March 2024 (see https://dorerfoundation.org/software)
You can now compute replicate weights that take into account the Margin of Error for the adjusting target marginal tables.
These new functions need to be added to the documentation help files. If you want to use this feature email info@dorerfoundation.org
