Where to Find Data Sets

By: Anna Cave

We talk about data analysis all the time, but where can we find that data?

Data can come from anywhere. If you're starting a new project, it might be nice to try data scraping with tools of your own. Some projects, however, may require sets of data that have already been collected. In these instances, it may not make sense to go through the process of collecting when the sets of data already exist and are just waiting to be used. If you're interested in using data without the hassle of collecting it, check out some of these places to find data sets.

Each site has a description of what type of data you'll find on it so you don't waste any time sifting through sites that won't have what you're looking for.
