Small area estimation without writing code

SAE Studio fits Fay-Herriot small area models to survey data and area-level tables. It computes direct and model-based estimates with measures of precision, runs diagnostics on every fit, and exports tables and a methods report. All computation runs in your browser: your file is read locally and is never uploaded.

How it works

  1. Upload and profile. Load an area-level table or respondent-level survey file; the tool profiles it and checks the columns it needs.
  2. Configure. Set the outcome, the areas, and the model options, with every choice stated in plain terms.
  3. Read the results. Direct and model-based estimates side by side, each with its measure of precision.
  4. Check the diagnostics and export. Diagnostics on every fit, then tables and a methods report to take with you.
