sc2sc: Spatial Transfer of Statistics among Spanish Census Sections

Transfers/imputes statistics among Spanish spatial polygons (census sections or postal code areas) from different moments in time (2001-2023) without need of spatial files, just linking statistics to the ID codes of the spatial units. The data available in the census sections of a partition/division (cartography) into force in a moment of time is transferred to the census sections of another partition/division employing the geometric approach (also known as areal weighting or polygon overlay).
