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.
data available from the National Bureau of Economic Research data archive. includes macro data such as business cycles, Industry Data such as Job Creation and Destruction Data, International Trade Data, "Individual Data," Hospital Data, Demographic and Vital Statistics, Patent Data, and more such as Data Appendixes from NBER Working Papers and Books, Segregation Data, etc.
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 portal provides access to an unprecedented quantity of social sciences quantitative datasets using an easy to use Web interface. It harvests statistical datasets and variables published on the Semantic Web from all the largest European social sciences. CESSDA
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.
unbiased, data-driven comparisons. information obtained from three sources: Public databases, primary sources (manufacturer websites) and expert sources.
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.
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.
