About Free Datasets
A searchable directory of free public datasets by topic, from climate and government to machine learning. See the format, licence, publisher and update frequency of each one before you download.
The directory is built from awesomedata/awesome-public-datasets, an open list maintained on GitHub by its community and published under MIT. We turn it into a faster way to browse: categories you can filter, search across every entry, and extra context the list itself doesn't carry.
Free Datasets is independent and not affiliated with the list's maintainers. To add or correct an entry, contribute to the original list; changes show up here automatically.
