Foundation 049 overlapping Minnesota

This page is a JOIN of two keys: National Science Foundation on the agency side and Minnesota on the state side. The packet stores $410,377,895.65 and 533 awards. Records coded to another state, or to another awarding agency inside Minnesota, belong on other overlays. Minnesota (MN) excludes Wisconsin, Iowa, North Dakota, and South Dakota. A Minneapolis-coded award with a Wisconsin place-of-performance tag is a different cell.

The row count 533 can include continuations and modifications. It is not 533 unique named campuses, principal investigators, or directorate tallies. 533 awards against $410,377,895.65 is a 533-award research-agency file, not a university census. National Science Foundation in Minnesota is the overlay for this pair. Minnesota federal spending remains the statewide hub. National Science Foundation remains the agency parent. All spending ties lists other joins.

Directorates and named campuses are unpublished. Do not invent universities or principal investigators. A large or small state population is not in this packet and does not explain $410,377,895.65. Correlation is not causation. Stay on 049 × MN.

Grant folklore is not a packet field

$410,377,895.65 does not measure named campuses, principal investigators, or directorate tallies. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 049 and an MN place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 533 awards as a census of named campuses, principal investigators, or directorate tallies. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Minnesota federal spending or National Science Foundation matched $410,377,895.65 and 533, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighboring-state NSF joins are other pairs, not addends.
