Two new APIs and a couple of chunky zip files…<http://powerofinformation.wordpress.com/2008/07/02/two-new-apis-and-a-couple-of-chunky-zip-files/>
Posted: 02 Jul 2008 04:28 AM CDT A crack team of data ferrets working for the Task Force have returned from their first forays into the bowels of Government. And lo, they come bearing gigabytes of juicy data <http://www.showusabetterway.com/call/data.html>, most of which is ready to share in handy API format. Check out the Office of National Statistics Neighbourhood Statistics API <http://neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/Info.do?page=nde.htm>for an avalanche of local data. Or the NHS Choices API<http://www.nhs.uk/nhscwebservices/Pages/Webservices.aspx>, for those of you who fancy re-using much of the advice available on the NHS website. Or the 47MB of zipped XML <http://www.londongazette.co.uk/mashup/gazettesrdf.htm>making up the last year of official notices Governement and others are required by law to publish in the London Gazette. Or even the contents of EduBase<http://www.opsi.gov.uk/advice/poi/edubase300608.zip>listing the address of every school in England and Wales with details of the headteacher, age range of pupils and school status (e.g. foundation school). What's more, the ferrets assure me that there's more to come… *Edit: Clarified that Edubase is only data from England and Wales * <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gocomments/powerofinformation.wordpress.com/41/> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/godelicious/powerofinformation.wordpress.com/41/> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gostumble/powerofinformation.wordpress.com/41/> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/godigg/powerofinformation.wordpress.com/41/> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/goreddit/powerofinformation.wordpress.com/41/> You are subscribed to email updates from Power of Information Task Force<http://powerofinformation.wordpress.com> To stop receiving these emails, you may unsubscribe now<http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailunsub?id=12907570&key=MiP52CJ0Zc> .
