OACoder (2011)
Geodemographic classifications are small area classifications of social, economic and demographic characteristics. The 2011 Output Area Classification (OAC) is a free geodemographic classification. It is an Office of National Statistics validated measure that summarises neighbourhood conditions at the Output Area Level across the United Kingdom. Linkage of this valuable statistics has been problematic for users more used to address records that are georeferenced using unit postcodes. OACoder (2011) resolves this problem by allowing users to link corresponding 2011 OAC codes to each of the postcode addresses. OACoder (2011) is an open source software, and it is developed and tested to work on different versions of windows operating systems. It is stored in Figshare.
