Data Sources

Given that I keep coming across interesting sources of data then I figured I should collect them here. Please note that just because I have listed them does not mean to say I have used them or that they are safe and free of malware. So, please take all the "usual" precautions.

Some of the following are data files and others are API endpoints.

• Find open data - data.gov.uk
• Anonymised MOT tests and results - data.gov.uk
• National Statistics Postcode Lookup UK - Datasets - Justin Clift made an SQLite database of this
• toddmotto/public-apis: A collective list of public JSON APIs for use in web development.
• Office for National Statistics API: Specification summary
• https://api.ons.gov.uk/dataset
• Ordnance Survey for Developers
• Cat Facts API
• Swagger UI for AdoptOpenJDK
• Postcodes.io - fantastic postcode resource, even generate a random postcode
• HERE REST APIs | Portable APIs for Maps, Routing and More | HERE

There are also search APIs, see Brave Search API | Brave for an easy to use API that allows internet searching.
