The Global Poverty Mapping Project seeks to enhance current understanding of the global distribution of poverty and the geographic and biophysical conditions of where the poor live.
The U.S. Census Grids provide raster data sets that include not only population and housing counts, but a wide variety of socioeconomic characteristics. These gridded data sets transform irregularly shaped census block and block group boundaries into a regular surface – a raster grid – for faster and easier analysis.

The British National Corpus (BNC) is a 100 million word collection of samples of written and spoken language from a wide range of sources, designed to represent a wide cross-section of current British English, both spoken and written.
The 2008 version of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade Database contains 8,374 voyages added since the CD-Rom was published in 1999 and additional information on 19,320 voyages. The expanded data set has 276 variables, compared with 99 in the Voyages Database available online.
The Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade Database has information on almost 35,000 slaving voyages that forcibly embarked over 10 million Africans for transport to the Americas between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries. It offers researchers, students and the general public a chance to rediscover the reality of one of the largest forced movements of peoples in world history.
Politically-Oriented Web-Enhanced Research Methods for Undergraduates — Topics and Tools Resources for introductory research methods courses in political science and related disciplines. Most Topic exercises require data analysis that uses statistical software.
allows you to create professional-looking interactive maps from a wide variety of geographic data in only a few minutes. Maker runs right in your web browser. it’s very easy to find and add different data to your map. You can also add your own data to these maps by uploading it through Finder.
DataDepot is a set of tools for collaboratively uploading, sharing, and analyzing data. You can use DataDepot to track personal data, to explore public data, and to engage with scientific data.
DBpedia is a community effort to extract structured information from Wikipedia and to make this information available on the Web. DBpedia allows you to ask sophisticated queries against Wikipedia, and to link other data sets on the Web to Wikipedia data.
Discover the data behind the Department of Energy's scientific publications. Use the DOE Data Explorer (DDE) to find scientific research data - such as computer simulations, numeric data files, figures and plots, interactive maps, multimedia, and scientific images - generated in the course of DOE-sponsored research in various science disciplines.
here's a lot of great information out there about politics — votes, lobbying records, campaign finance reports. Unfortunately, it's split across a dozen different web sites and often hidden behind confusing interfaces. We're pulling all of that together and letting you explore it in one elegant, unified interface. (Plus, we're sharing all the results so you can come up with new ways to explore it.)
designed to provide quick and easy access to a wide range of data on tax rates, collections and overall tax burdens. All data are posted in Excel when available.
The 20 Newsgroups data set is a collection of approximately 20,000 newsgroup documents, partitioned (nearly) evenly across 20 different newsgroups. The collection has become a popular data set for experiments in text applications of machine learning techniques, such as text classification and text clustering.
