The Datahub provides free access to many of CKAN's core features, letting you search for data, register published datasets, create and manage groups of datasets, and get updates from datasets and groups you're interested in. You can use the web interface or, if you are a programmer needing to connect the Datahub with another app, the CKAN API.
unbiased, data-driven comparisons. information obtained from three sources: Public databases, primary sources (manufacturer websites) and expert sources.

The Nucleic Acids Research online Molecular Biology Database Collection is a public repository that lists more than 1000 databases described in this and previous Nucleic Acids Research annual database issues, as well as a selection of molecular biology databases described in other journals. All databases included in this Collection are freely available to the public. The 2008 update includes 1078 databases, 110 more than the previous one. The links to more than 80 databases have been updated and 25 obsolete databases have been removed from the list. The complete database list and summaries are available online at the Nucleic Acids Research web site, http://nar.oxfordjournals.org/.
This guide is intended to serve as a helpful reference tool for the data sets available from the HUD USER Clearinghouse, and on our website at www.HUDUSER.org. We have provided a brief description of each data set along with its Web address, release data, format(s), and the time frame to which the data applies.
DataFirst is a Survey Data Archive and training facility at the University of Cape Town, South Africa. The Archive’s holdings include the datasets from all major South African surveys, as well as survey data from other African countries. Researchers can access the data and supporting documentation from the DataFirst Resource Centre. Researchers further afield can download data documentation and public access datasets via the DataFirst data catalogue. The website provides access to bibliographies of literature using the survey data. These bibliographies include links to the full-text articles where these are available.

Governments around the globe are opening up their data vaults – allowing you to check out the numbers for yourself. This is the Guardian’s gateway to that information. Search for government data here from the UK (including London), USA, Australia and New Zealand – and look out for new countries and places as we add them.
The National Data Catalog (NatDatCat) is an open platform for government data sets and APIs. NatDatCat makes it easy to find datasets by and about government, across all levels (federal, state, and local) and across all branches (executive, legislative, and judicial). The data here is imported from several sources and curated by our staff. Currently, we have importers setup for Data.Gov and the DC Data Catalog. NatDatCat is a project of the Sunlight Labs at the Sunlight Foundation. The platform consists of an API and a Web application.
OBIS-USA is a one-stop source for biogeographic data collected from U.S. waters and oceanic regions-the Arctic, the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, the Caribbean Sea, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Great Lakes. It provides access to highly distributed data sets from a multitude of partners DOCUMENTing where and when species were observed or collected. The site allows one to examine each data set to assess its applicability for a variety of uses. Current functionality allows the user to view the data and FGDC compliant metadata as well as to view geographic, temporal or spatial extent; the taxonomic depth and richness.
The objectives of this initiative are to establish easier access to scientific research data on the Internet, to increase acceptance of research data as legitimate, citable contributions to the scientific record, and to support data archiving that will permit results to be verified and re-purposed for future study. DataCite will promote data sharing, increased access, and better protection of research investment.
Data Sources on Older Americans (DSOA) highlights the contents of government-sponsored surveys and products containing statistical information about the older population. All Federal agencies are invited to contribute to this report and participate in the Forum. Starting in 2009, DSOA includes some non-federal data sources. T he Federal Interagency Forum on Aging-Related Statistics, National Center for Health Statistics

REACTOME is a free, online, open-source, curated pathway database encompassing many areas of human biology. Information is authored by expert biological researchers, maintained by the Reactome editorial staff and cross-referenced to a wide range of standard biological databases.
The Data Preservation Alliance for the Social Sciences (Data-PASS) is a broad-based partnership devoted to identifying, acquiring and preserving data at-risk of being lost to the social science research community. The partners coordinate identification, acquisition, and cataloging of data at risk; develop best practices for data archiving; and create a shared infrastructure and practices for cataloging and preservation. Data-PASS is led by the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR) at the University of Michigan, the Roper Center for Public Opinion Research at the University of Connecticut, the Howard W. Odum Institute at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, the Henry A. Murray Research Archive, a member of the Institute for Quantitative Social Science at Harvard University, the National Archives and Records Administration, and the Harvard-MIT Data Center.
Our mission is to make data about San Diego freely available for everyone to use. Data about San Diego are any data that describe San Diego in any way. We don't care where the data comes from, whether it's from the city government, federal sources, or any other organization that gathers data. We also want to highlight the importance of knowing how to use data. The data science industry is growing rapidly, and San Diego's economy is well-positioned to benefit from this growth. One thing we want to do at Open San Diego is shine a spotlight on data scientists and show how important and exciting their work can be.

Zanran helps you to find ‘semi-structured’ data on the web. This is the numerical data that people have presented as graphs and tables and charts. For example, the data could be a graph in a PDF report, or a table in an Excel spreadsheet, or a barchart shown as an image in an HTML page. Put more simply: Zanran is Google for data. At present, we extract tables and images from HTML, PDF and Excel files and will be processing PowerPoint and Word documents in the near future.
