Data information projects:
The 1k Project



The 1k Project II



Cloudmade
CloudMade help you make the most of map data. We source our maps from OpenStreetMap, the community mapping project which is making a free map of the world. Our aims are to continue the democratization of geo data and to expand access to open geo data through a range of simple yet powerful tools and APIs.
Cloudmade - Customade Maps


Cabspotting
Cabspotting traces San Francisco's taxi cabs as they travel throughout the Bay Area. The patterns traced by each cab create a living and always-changing map of city life. This map hints at economic, social, and cultural trends that are otherwise invisible. The Exploratorium has invited artists and researchers to use this information to reveal these "Invisible Dynamics."

Digg Labs
The labs provide a broader (and deeper) view of Digg. A lot of stuff gets submitted to Digg every day, so good things can sometimes fly right past you. Labs projects look beneath the surface of the Digg community's activities.
Labs projects are the results of collaboration with Digg partner stamen design. We've also released a public API for Digg so that anyone can turn Digg data into their own visualizations.

SFMOMA Artscope
The SFMOMA Artscope is a visual browsing tool that allows to explore more than 3500 artworks in the collection.

LOCOG
A new map for LOCOG (the London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games). The project organizes of the thousands of geocoded articles and photos that the London 2012 team are producing, highlight the ongoing works in the Olympic Park, London and the UK, and showcases the depth and breadth of information available on the main site.

Oakland Crimespotting
Oakland Crimespotting is an interactive map of crimes in Oakland and a tool for understanding crime in cities.
If you hear sirens in your neighborhood, you should know why. Crimespotting makes this possible with interactive maps, e-mail updates, and RSS feeds of crimes in areas that you care about.
We’ve found ourselves frustrated by the proprietary systems and long disclaimers that ultimately limit information available to the public. As citizens we have a right to public information. A clear understanding of our environment is essential to an informed citizenry.

Many Eyes
Many Eyes is an “open laboratory” for exploring the intersection of data visualization and user generated content. The folks at CUE have made available an application (or set of applications) which create on-the-fly visualizations of data sets that users of the site can upload. On the site’s about page, the group states its objective as the enabling of “a new social kind of data analysis.”
