IMPLAN
IMPLAN is an Input/Output (I/O) modeling system that is maintained by Minnesota IMPLAN Group, Inc., which is located in Stillwater, Minnesota. An I/O model is based on the theory that when new money enters a community through investment, revenues or income, some of it is re-spent one or more times in the local economy, thereby creating an economic impact that is most often measured in terms of employment, income or output. IMPLAN estimates these impacts using specific data on what inputs are needed to produce the porducts or services for some 500+ industries.
