Fulfilling the Promise of Open Data - Over 3 Billion Live Data Series

Today's Web is filled with Open Data - hundreds of authoritative, original data sources, freely accessible to everyone.

Before dataZoa, the actual practice of using Open Data sources was time-consuming, messy and painful. A major portion of time was wasted on "data drudgery"; cleaning, aligning, pasting, re-typing and such. All before any real thought or analysis could begin.

dataZoa solves this problem head-on, with its radically simple Drag, Build, and Share approach.

The promise of Open Data is that we can actively incorporate these sources into our day-to-day business and policy decisions.

For people who work with Open Data:

datazoa's Mission is to Erase the Pain and Fulfill the Promise of Open Data

dataZoa in brief...

It all starts with dataZoa's path-breaking dZ-Dot

browser add-on.

The add-on precedes you as you visit any of hundreds of supported sites, cleans up the available data, and places the dZ-Dot next to it, showing that it's ready to Drag into your dataZoa account.

Once you've dragged data into your account, you can Build calculations, displays and dashboards, freely inter-mixing any and all data sources as you see fit.

At any point, you can Share your work, with a simple SMS or email message, blog posting or formal website display.

Importantly, as the real-world data changes, your data, computations and displays all change with it, updating automatically.

Drag-and-Drop Open Data: A few Examples...

Build: Calculations, Displays and Dashboards

Powerful Formulas - Calculations that handle time series naturally, update automatically, feed other calculations.
- For example, build a regional composite of commuter data from three separate States.
- Your dZCalculation blends the three sources into a regional composite, which in turn can feed other calculations.
Rich Displays - Tables , Charts , LatestValues , even scrollable dataBlocks
- Put the authoritative State data alongside your new regional composite into a chart or table.
- As the State data changes, the calculation and the display update automatically to reflect the new reality.
Live Dashboards - to offer a complete narrative
- Combine key displays, along with captions, weblinks, videos .

Share: With friends, colleagues, or the world at large

Share Data, Displays and Dashboards privately - You have complete control over who can see your work
Feed Spreadsheets automatically - send a dataZoa display to a Spreadsheet and it becomes an integrated part of your workflow
