ECOADATALAB is a consortium of universities using data science to scale up climate and sustainability solutions. The data, tools and analyses on this website are contantly updated and expanding with input from teams of ECODATALAB students and researchers. We welcome faculty advisers, nationally and internationally, who wish to join the project.
ECODATALAB is supported by financial contributions of member organizations who help identify priorities and benefit from the resources on ENVIROEXPLORER.ORG. See our membership page for details.
Selected time series (2007-2017) U.S. Census data for all U.S. cities with comparison to state averages. Includes population, income, home size, vehicles available, commute times, race, heating fuel and more. Check back for regular updates with more variables and geographies.
Local governments spend valuable resources collecting data for community-scale greenhouse gas inventories. ECODATALAB is automating data collection for thousands of cities and counties throughout the United States to provide consistent tracking and reporting.
