I’m working on a new project and I’m looking for data in GitHub repositories - CSV, YML, etc. … does anyone have any links?
eg. For http://dataportals.org/ there is a CSV at dataportals.org/portals.csv at master · okfn/dataportals.org · GitHub
Looking forward to sharing it with you all in a few weeks - it got some good feedback at the local OKFN group recently! Thanks, James

https://datahub.io/ is worth a look!

the majority of my githubs are data. here are a few:
Data sets of the United States
Open Virginia GIS is a repository of gis data mapping the Commonwealth of Virginia, its localities, features, demographics, etc. Census data, state data, and locality data included....eventually standalone will automagic all of this
EPA Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) Database
OKFN’s Data Packaged Core Sets is probably much more ideal:
Open Virginia has a few repos, here is one:
GIS data about the wildfire risk posed, by planning district.
Open Addresses stores their data on GitHub too:
A global repository of open address, building, and parcel data.
Sunlight Labs FOIA data:
Tracking FOIA data across government agencies and departments

Thanks! I will look at these and any more shortly. Now I’ve announced this project ( Working with community data on GitHub: New Project DataTig ) I’m looking for lots of GitHub repos to test it on and also to make sure the results are as useful as they can be.
