Worldwide Open Data Sites. Hi, it’s been a while since I posted last!

Worldwide Open Data Sites

The Tableau Public team has been busy launching author profiles (here’s mine) and expanding the free application’s data limit from 100k rows to 1M rows, so I haven’t posted very often this summer. After wrapping up another project I’m working on, I’ll pick it back up again here at DataRemixed. In the meantime, I thought I’d share a handy dandy tool that helps users find Open Data sites around the world. In researching sites to give users who are looking to find data to play with, I came across a data.gov website called “Open Data Sites” that provides a csv file containing a bunch of links to sites (292 294 of them) from different countries (48 50 different ones, to be exact).

To get to the sites, you have to download the csv, open it, and click the links. If you know of other useful sites to find publicly available data sets, I’d love it if you’d leave a comment for everyone else’s benefit. Thanks for stopping by, Ben. Open Data Sites.

About NYC Open Data - NYC Open Data

As part of an initiative to improve the accessibility, transparency, and accountability of City government, this catalog offers access to a repository of government-produced, machine-readable data sets. Anyone can use these data sets to participate in and improve government by conducting research and analysis or creating applications, thereby gaining a better understanding of the services provided by City agencies and improving the lives of citizens and the way in which government serves them. The data sets are available in a variety of machine-readable formats and are refreshed when new data becomes available. Data is presented by category, by City agency, or by other City organization. Descriptions of the data, the collection method, and other contextual material, called metadata, make the data sets easier to understand and use. Welcome - the Datahub.

The World Bank. OCDE / OECD. Flu trends. Nous avons remarqué que certains termes de recherche étaient des indicateurs efficaces de la propagation de la grippe.

Flu trends

Google Suivi de la grippe rassemble donc des données de recherche Google pour fournir une estimation quasiment en temps réel de cette propagation à l'échelle mondiale. Chaque semaine, des millions d'internautes du monde entier recherchent des informations ayant trait à la santé. Naturellement, nous enregistrons davantage de recherches sur la grippe durant la saison des grippes, sur les allergies pendant la saison des allergies et sur les coups de soleil au cours de la période estivale. Vous pouvez explorer l'ensemble de ces phénomènes à l'aide de Google Tendances des recherches. Cependant, est-il possible de créer un modèle précis et fiable représentant un phénomène réel à partir de simples tendances constatées dans les requêtes de recherche ? Dans ce cas, pourquoi générer des estimations à partir d'une synthèse des requêtes de recherche ?
