Not all economic models are built by default. Sometimes you may want to create a customized region, or combine several non-overlapping regions together to emulate a single economic region.

Most Regional endpoints return a single Region or list of Regions in json format.

A Region Type defines a particular geographic area, from small local regions to entire countries.

• Country
  • A country, such as The United States, Canada, or Japan
• **State **
  • A US State such as Oregon or Wisconsin
  • A US Territory such as Guam or Puerto Rico
  • A Canadian Province such as Alberta or British Columbia
• County
  • A county inside of a US State such as Mecklenburg County, NC
  • A Candian Economic Region.
• Zipcode
  • A US 5-digit zip code such as 54742
• MSA -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metropolitan_statistical_area
  • A US metropolitan statistical area such as Eau Claire WI MSA
• CD -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congressional_district
  • A US congressional district such as OR-03 (Oregon's 3rd Congressional District)

There are several different identifiers used to refer to a particular Region.

A Hash Identifier (hashid) is associated with a specific Regions, which may be a country, state, metropolitan statistical area (MSA), county, congressional district (CD), zip code, combined, or customized region. This is a way to identify a geography before economic modeling data (such as multipliers) has been created. A HashId is a sequence of letters and numbers, such as Bzxjpp2YbN or rDalqKB8bq

[!INFO] HashId may be referred to as HashId, hashId, or hashid interchangeably.

A Universal Region Identifier (urid) is the former way to refer to a unique Region. A Urid is a number, such as 1742924 and 1738375

A User Model Identifier (UserModelId) refers to a Region created by a user (customized and/or combined). This was the old way to refer to a non-IMPLAN region and has mostly been deprectiated.

A Model Identifier (ModelId) is an old way to refer to a regional model. It is no longer used.
