• Browse these tools designed to mashup and work with data. Play with them and see how they work. Combine them with your own ideas and develop apps — like maps, charts, graphs, and visualizations — to present data in a way that’s more useful for you. In your search for data and interesting ways to mash it up, you might want to look at other data catalogues or connect with people working on similar projects — share your ideas and creations with them through the Google Group. There are many other tools that are available, and we will be updating this page often.

    GeoCommons

    Build gorgeous maps in just minutes using GeoIQ's simple workflow and quick exploration capabilities. Animate your data through time and space with our one-click temporal analysis. See trends and predict impacts. Share and embed your visualizations on Facebook, Twitter, and embed them in your blog.

    ProtoVis

    Use this data visualization graphical toolkit to create custom views of data with simple marks such as bars and dots. It is free and open-source, provided under the BSD License. It uses JavaScript and SVG for web-native visualizations; no plugin is required (though you will need a modern web browser)! Although programming experience is helpful, Protovis is mostly declarative and designed to be learned by example.

    StatPlanet

    A browser-based interactive data visualization and mapping application. Use it to easily and rapidly create visualizations from simple Flash maps to advanced infographics.

    EazyBi

    If you have a lot of data but you don't know how to get information out of data formaking decisions then eazyBI is for you! Identify trends, top/bottom performers, start with summary overview and drill into details. eazyBI is easy and fun to use and you will be able to impress your colleagues with your data analysis wizard skills!

    Junar

    Junar is a community-based website, in which users share the data they extract from the web. With this "Wikipedia-collaborative" approach, Junar's users will benefit from having access to a huge and diverse catalog of data.

  • The Socrata Open Data API (SODA) provides an open, standards-based, RESTful application programming interface to Kenya's Open Data catalog and all its hosted datasets. SODA makes programmatic data discovery, access and re-use readily and uniformly available to developers, on any Socrata-powered site. Namely, developers enjoy:

    • Automatic API access to the metadata catalog, the full-text index and row-level data in every dataset;
    • Support for advanced operations such as search, sort and filter, as well as geo-search for geo-coded datasets;
    • The ability to download any dataset in several formats such as CSV, XML, JSON, XLS and RDF;
    • Open standards, and Creative Commons License to the SODA specifications;
    • Growing community support and resource library on the SODA developer site featuring runnable code samples in several languages, full documentation, developer forum, developer blog and access to Socrata's engineering team for support.

    Spend more time building apps and less time worrying about the data.
