More Public Data
Last week Google announced public data in search and trends, and now Amazon has released a bunch of public data for use on EC2.
I can’t wait to start playing with some of this data, eg:
The Twilio / Wigle.net Street Vector data set provides a complete database of US street names and address ranges mapped to Zip Codes and latitude/longitude ranges, with DTMF key mappings for all street names. This data can be used to validate and normalize street addresses, find a list of street addresses in a zip code, locate the latitude and longitude of an address, and so forth. This data is made available as a set of MySQL data files.
