MORPC Python package

Introduction

The MORPC data team maintains a package with contains commonly-used constants, mappings, and functions to allow for code-reuse in multiple scripts. The package documentation and code is available at the morpc-py repository in GitHub.

This package is still in development but currently contains the following modules:

• morpc - Main library. Includes contents which are broadly applicable for MORPC's work, including MORPC branding, region definitions and utilities, and general purpose data manipulation functions.
• morpc.frictionless - Functions and classes for working with metadata, including schemas, resources, and data packages. These are for internal processes that use the frictionless-py package. Frictionless was implemented by MORPRC roughly around 2025 to manage all metadata and to develop workflow documentation.
• morpc.census - Constants and functions that are relevant when working with Census data, including decennial census, ACS, and PEP.
