Amid shifts at the Federal level, a number of groups are securing databases and tools that many of the built environment community depend on. Many people are worried about losing access to US Federal data that may go offline or already has. Among the data that many in our community are concerned may be at risk of becoming unavailable is US Energy Information Administration (EIA) data, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) C-MORE program, and the Open Energy Data Initiative (OEDI) data from the Department of Energy.
There are a number of efforts that have sought to archive datasets and tools. COTE is gathering this information as we see it released and will build on this list as needed. We are editing this list to prioritize sources that are the most critical to built environment functions.
