The US Census Bureau has released its very first public API, allowing developers to create web and mobile apps based on the government’s collection of demographic and economic statistics. The Bureau launched the API Thursday, alongside a new ”app gallery” website where users can view and download apps that have already been built.
With the API, developers will have access to two sets of statistical databases: the 2010 Census, and the 2006-2010 American Community Survey.
