The U.S. Census Bureau provides some really nify data http://www.census.gov/geo/www/tiger/tiger2003/tgr2003.html it's public domain. I want to do a query like tell me the lat, lon, name, and type of everything within 50 miles of Cambridge, MA Right now, I have to download all the files, unzip them, read a bunch of docs, write some software, blah blah blah. I'd like to just look at it as a big RDF graph and issue a query. Hmm... it's not clear they (the census folks) have motivation to offer a query service. But clearly a third party could. -- Dan Connolly, W3C http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/ see you at the WWW2004 in NY 17-22 May?Received on Wednesday, 17 March 2004 13:06:16 UTC
