Political Science: Open Access Datasets

We’re sharing the data and code behind some of our articles and graphics. We hope you’ll use it to check our work and to create stories and visualizations of your own.

At the World Bank, the Development Data Group coordinates statistical and data work and maintains a number of macro, financial and sector databases. Working closely with the Bank’s regions and Global Practices, the group is guided by professional standards in the collection, compilation and dissemination of data to ensure that all data users can have confidence in the quality and integrity of the data produced.

This registry exists to help people discover and share datasets that are available via AWS resources.

The long term aim is to include every elected official in the world, but let’s start simple. Our first goal is to have data for all present-day national-level legislators.

We are sharing city data with the public to increase transparency, accountability and customer service and to empower companies, individuals and non-profit organizations with the ability to harness a vast array of useful information to improve life in our city. I hope that this data will help drive innovation and problem solving within the public and private sectors and that Angelenos will use it to more deeply understand and engage with their city. I encourage you to explore data.lacity.org to conduct research, develop apps or simply to poke around.
