CrisisMaven’s Blog News 2010-02-12: List of Data Visualisation Sources
The promised List of Data Visualisation Sources is now online.
Other sorted lists by subject will follow in due course.
Our Reference List now has over 400 data sources listed (and counting); most are meta lists totalling hundreds of thousands of economic indicators, time series, historical data, addresses of central banks etc.
This list will be constantly revised and added to, so visit regularly! We strive to make this the authoritative source on the Internet and your “one stop shop” whether you are a researcher, a student, or looking for sources and data for your homework, assignments or a thesis or are just curious and interested in economics.
Please feel free to make suggestions there through comments, report broken links, omissions, errors or write us a “wish list”.
