- Abstract
- A block is a territorial unit used for statistical purposes, preferably delimited by streets, property boundaries, or, failing that, watercourses and streams. It must have a residential, commercial, industrial, recreational, or other land use included within the urban perimeter. As such, a block must always be within the urban census limit (LUC). Blocks are the smallest territorial units that the INE is charged to survey for its statistical products, and each can be recognized through the block code, called 'Manzent,' which represents the information of the commune, type of area (urban or rural), district, zone, and block code.[La manzana es una unidad territorial utilizada para fines estadísticos, delimitada preferentemente por calles, límites prediales o en su defecto por cursos hídricos y quebradas. Debe contar con un uso de suelo residencial, comercial, industrial, recreativo y otros usos incluidos dentro del perímetro urbano. Una manzana como tal, siempre debe encontrarse al interior del límite urbano censal (LUC). La manzana es la mínima unidad territorial que ocupa el INE para el levantamiento de sus productos estadísticos y cada una puede ser reconocida a través del código de manzana, denominado 'Manzent', quien representa la información de la comuna, tipo de área (urbana o rural), distrito, zona y código de manzana.]
- Purpose
- Blocks are the smallest territorial units that the INE is charged to survey for its statistical products. [La manzana es la mínima unidad territorial que ocupa el INE para el levantamiento de sus productos estadísticos.]
- Supplemental Information
- This resource is generated by the INE for census and sample purposes. During the phase of the precensus survey, the commission's conformal polygons are validated or modified by field surveyors. At a later stage, the updates determined in the field are incorporated to complete the precensus and census database, respectively. [Este recurso es generado por el INE con propósitos censales y muestrales. Durante la fase del levantamiento Precensal, los polígonos conformaos en gabinete son validados o modificados por los encuestadores en terreno. En una etapa posterior, se incorporan las actualizaciones detectadas en terreno para ser completadas con la base de datos del Precenso y Censo respectivamente.]

- Data are licensed to Princeton University-affiliated persons only. The blocks are surveyed in the 2016 precensus with a manzent code predefined by the commission. It is a layer subject to update, wherein each feature must be validated, corrected or modified once the survey stage has been completed. Therefore, it is hereby warned that use of these data is strictly the responsibility of the people who request it, who must adopt the appropriate precautions and safeguards given its status as preliminary cartography.[Las manzanas se levantan en el Precenso 2016 con un código manzent predefinido en gabinete. Es una capa sujeta a actualización, donde cada una de ellas debe ser validada, corregidas o modificadas una vez finalizada la etapa de levantamiento. Por lo tanto, se advierte que su uso es bajo estricta responsabilidad de las personas que lo solicitan, quienes deberán adoptar las precauciones y resguardos del caso, atendido su carácter de cartografía preliminar.]
