There is a broad range of software tools available for data analysis. Some, like [[Stata]], are proprietary and specialized for applications to econometric problems in the survey-data context; others, like [[R]], are open-source and follow more general coding standards so that they are familiar to programmers in other languages and more readily adaptable to tasks that are not well-defined in the econometric framework (such as [[Spatial Analysis]]).
