Department of Commerce in Florida

Commerce awards tagged to Florida

Department of Commerce as awarding agency, Florida as place-of-performance: 891 records summing to $4,397,697,957.56. A Department of Commerce award coded outside FL is out. An award in Florida from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Florida (FL) excludes Georgia and Alabama. A hurricane-recovery story tagged to those states belongs on those ties.

Eight hundred ninety-one awards against $4,397,697,957.56 is a mid-thin Commerce file: fewer rows than a USDA flood, more than a 13-row restoration cell. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 891 as 891 unique tourism GDP, hurricane forecasts, or unique Census respondents. The overlay Department of Commerce in Florida is the both-keys table. Florida federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Commerce is the agency book without an FL filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

This packet does not isolate NOAA from EDA or Census. $4,397,697,957.56 is the parent 013 code plus Florida. Correlation is not causation: Florida did not “cause” $4,397,697,957.56 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 013 × FL only.

NOAA, Census, and NIST are unpublished splits

$4,397,697,957.56 does not measure tourism GDP, hurricane forecasts, or unique Census respondents. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 013 and an FL place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 891 awards as a census of tourism GDP, hurricane forecasts, or unique Census respondents. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Florida federal spending or Department of Commerce matched $4,397,697,957.56 and 891, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Georgia and Alabama Commerce joins are other pairs, not addends.
