China Data Center is a constituent unit of the International Institute at the University of Michigan. Founded in 1997, the China Data Center of the University of Michigan is designed to serve as an international center for advancing the study and understanding of China. A primary goal of the Center is the integration of historical, social and natural science data in a geographic information system. Its missions are: to support research in the human and natural components of local, regional and global change; to promote quantitative research on China; to promote collaborative research in spatial studies; and to promote the use and sharing of China data in teaching and research. The center is partnering with several Chinese government agencies and companies in distributing China statistical data, Census data, spatial data and providing data services outside of China.
