Merge DETECT data with APS data
- I’m looking for someone who can help me link records across two administrative datasets that don’t share a unique identifier. Instead, we will need to probabilistically match people across datasets based on name, date of birth, and address. We will likely use R’s RecordLinkage package, R’s fastLink package, or Python’s dedupe library to accomplish this.
