Randy,

Do you mean gridded demographics via OGC-style WCS? Or something different?

We (CIESIN) have gridded US census data based on blocks with OGC style WMS &
WCS services in the works:

http://sedac.ciesin.columbia.edu/usgrid/
http://beta.sedac.ciesin.columbia.edu/gewmsreflector/KMZFiles/SanFranciscoCensusGrids.kmz

If you have particular use cases for these types of data in mind let me
know, we're interested in feedback on the data and what kind of services
will be most useful.

It would also be interesting to see what could be done with a WCS set of
demographic fields perhaps connected to block centroids. That should be
dense enough to make a surface at state and national scales. 3D thematics
could be an interesting view. Perhaps the 'Geography Division' can pass
the
goodness along to the 'Demographics Division' :) Then we could stack
selected fields in additive WCS images to look for singularities and such,
maybe throw in some NIH surfaces too.

Sorry, "give them an inch and they want the whole mile"

Thanks
