The Data Book
The Data Book is a yearly publication of the City Planning Department at the City of Raleigh. It serves as an update to the Community Inventory Report published in 2008. Planning staff combines data from federal, state, and regional agencies with city records to produce a wide-ranging snapshot of the residents, economy, resources, and infrastructure of the City. The Community Profile offers a condensed version of the Data Book for quick access and sharing.
Open Data
Raleigh has joined some of the leading cities in the United States in making public data readily available and all in one digital location. That location is the Open Data portal at data.raleighnc.gov. Open Data is a nationwide standard being adopted by many cities that empowers cities to share public data with citizens and between departments. When data is freely shared, citizens can understand and participate in the process of governance. City departments break down organizational barriers and start to find coordinated solutions for improving city services.
