Knoema makes datasets that are notoriously hard to work with easy to digest

There is often confusion that Knoema simply has a lot of public data. We don’t just assemble data in one location; we have data that is both easy and hard to find, and in some cases data that might be “public” but is not readily accessible, or accessible in a format that’s actually usable. This is a problem that we work tirelessly to solve at scale. For many difficult to work with datasets, our team has even designed the dissemination infrastructure for the country or agency that publishes it, ensuring the data is available for Knoema customers.  

Data source by type

Knoema doesn’t just archive and organize data, we make it discoverable

At Knoema, we don’t just want to have the world’s largest repository of data, we want to solve challenges related to finding and using it, so that our users can save time getting to exactly what they need. As such, we organize our data geographically in our data atlas, and also by industry, categories, and sources. To see how this coverage looks over the globe, we have a searchable Data Coverage Matrix that helps showcase the breadth and depth of our data coverage by location and category.

Above all, we focus on ensuring the data we have is useful to our users

In addition to volume, we’re also passionate about ensuring that we have datasets that are universally useful, with great resources to answer the most searched queries by data scientists and analysts across the web. We showcase these popular data sets in our Data Coverage Highlights page to easily show users what’s popular with the Knoema data community at large.
