SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROTECTING CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION THROUGH GEODEMOGRAPHIC INFORMATION AGGREGATION
First Claim
1. A method for providing demographic information for a geo-demographic cluster area within a predefined geographic region, the method comprising:
- providing a first database, the first database having a number of data records that directly or indirectly relate to occupants in the predefined geographic region;
providing a second database, the second database having a number of different data records that directly or indirectly relate to occupants in the predefined geographic region;
associating selected data entries in the first and second databases with parcels of land;
generating household-specific demographic profiles for each parcel of land using the data records in the first and second databases; and
generating an aggregate data set for at least two parcels of land by combining the household-specific demographic profiles for each of the at least two parcels of land.

Abstract
Systems and methods for providing demographic information for a geo-demographic cluster area within a predefined geographic region are disclosed. An illustrative method may include the steps of associating selected data entries from multiple databases with parcels of land in a predefined geographic region, generating household-specific demographic profiles for each parcel of land using data records from the databases, generating an aggregate dataset for at least two parcels of land by combining the household-specific demographic profiles for each parcel of land, and outputting selective data from the aggregate dataset to a user such as an individual or organization. The step of generating an aggregate dataset for at least two parcels of land can be used to protect the identity of individual residents or organizations located within the predefined geographic region.
