Census Blocks
2000 Census block boundaries clipped to Chicago. The data can be viewed on the Chicago Data Portal with a web browser. However, to view or use the files outside of a web browser, you will need to use compression software and special GIS software, such as ESRI ArcGIS (shapefile) or Google Earth (KML or KMZ), is required.
Querying over HTTP
Splitgraph serves as an HTTP API that lets you run SQL queries directly on this data to power Web applications. For example:
curl https://data.splitgraph.com/sql/query/ddn \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d@-<<EOF {"sql": " SELECT * FROM \"cityofchicago/census-blocks-sjp5-a3v5\".\"census_blocks\" LIMIT 100 "} EOF
See the Splitgraph documentation for more information.
