Get Access to Dewey Data

The Population Studies Center has contributed to an ISR-wide license for the Dewey Data academic research platform– providing access to a variety of third-party quantitative and geospatial datasets.

Diverse Data Sets

These datasets cover diverse categories, including urban planning, real estate, marketing, public policy, consumer behavior, workforce management, behavioral economics, and corporate finance.

The platform partners with data providers like SafeGraph, Veraset, and People Data Labs to offer data from sources such as mobile phone location, company employment, consumer transactions, and real estate data.
