Does some one has knowledges of how to process the census tiger data to finish the procedure describes here :

http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOSDOC/Loading+TIGER+high-level-polygon

There are already :
polygons, landmarks,water and roads

but there are not :
state polygons, county polygon, zipcode polygons, zipcode+4 polygons, economic polygons, cenus polygons

I'm currently working on the TIGER dataload. I was actually going to hold off construting these for a while because they're not trivial and I didnt think anyone would need them for a bit. Each one needs different processing because they store the data differently.

I will eventually get to them. Which ones were you most interested in?

I’m interested about the last point of the data import:

  1. Loading TIGER high-level-polygon future process
    • creates the TIGER high level polygon datasets (state polygons, county polygon, zipcode polygons, zipcode+4 polygons, economic polygons, cenus polygons, etc…)

I just need the state polygons and county polygon

Those are the two I was considering processing, so hopefully you'll see the instructions (and code) appear in a week or two.

The instructions for processing these are on the wiki now -- let me know if everything works for you.

I just added instructions for putting the state name and county names on them.
