censo2022arg: Extraction and Analysis of 2022 Argentina Census Microdata from REDATAM Databases

Provides tools to extract, label, and read microdata from the 2022 National Census of Population, Households and Dwellings of Argentina stored in REDATAM databases officially distributed by INDEC. Implements a complete province-by-province extraction pipeline with efficient memory management, reconstruction of hierarchical identifiers, automatic variable labeling from official INDEC dictionaries, and integrity verification against published totals. Allows working with census data directly in R without knowledge of REDATAM syntax, and supports export to multiple formats including Parquet, CSV, SPSS and SAS. Census data must be downloaded directly from the official INDEC portal (<https://www.indec.gob.ar>). This package does not distribute census data. Duran (2026) <doi:10.5281/zenodo.19560728>.
