Between 1922 and 1940, the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) conducted a long-term investigation into the corrosion of bare steel and iron, pipes buried underground at 47 sites representing different soil types in the United States. Following the passage of the 2004 Pipeline Safety Improvement Act, the Department of Transportation's Office of Pipeline Safety requested that NIST review and reanalyze the data from the NBS study using modern statistical analysis tools. For this analysis, NIST compiled an updated database from the data in the publications by K. H. Logan (i.e.

A searchable database of all applications received by the Broadband Technology and Opportunities Program (NTIA) and the Broadband Initiatives Program (RUS)

This API returns all geographies of a specified geography type.

Almanac API - Ranking by Geography ID within the Nation

This API is designed to find the rankings by any geography type within the nation with a specific census metric (population or household) and ranking metric (any of the metrics from provider, demographic, technology or speed). Support for full list of rankings by nation is not allowed for geography types (e.g., county, census place, usf) so only the top ten and bottom ten rankings would be returned through the API.

The Broadband Provider API searches for all providers with a specified name.

This API returns broadband summary data by geography IDs for a specific geography type. It is designed to retrieve broadband summary data by geography and census metrics (population or households) combined as search criteria. The data includes wireline and wireless providers, different technologies and broadband speeds reported in the particular area being searched for on a scale of 0 to 1.

This API returns broadband summary data for the entire United States. It is designed to retrieve broadband summary data and census metrics (population or households) combined as search criteria. The data includes wireline and wireless providers, different technologies and broadband speeds reported in the particular area being searched for on a scale of 0 to 1.

This API returns the US Census Block geography ID information given a passed Latitude and Longitude.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology, as part of its report on the collapse of the World Trade Center, characterized many important steels recovered from the buildings to provide stress-strain models to analyze the impact, fires, and resulting collapse. Those tests represent a large additional data set that can be used for modeling the response of steel structures to fire.
