Miscellaneous Datasets Repository

 

This page lists various datasets that may be of interest to Stanford Database Group folks. The intent is

a) to let group members know of the existence (and accessibility) of these datasets, so they know what's available for experimentation, and

b) to function as a repository for preservation of the data (so they won't be lost when someone graduates, for example).

Some of the datasets listed are not open for public use, and permission must be requested from the respective owners to use them. 

Let me know (glenj@cs.stanford.edu) if you have data you think may be of interest to other group members. It would be good to list it even if it cannot be distributed publicly, so whoever's interested in the data can go ask for permissions himself.
