  title: Georgia Civic Data Dimensions API
  description: 'Read-only REST API serving cleaned, standardized tabular data for the state of Georgia: **education**, **census**, **health** and **immigration**, driven entirely by git-tracked ODCS data contracts — so every dataset''s columns, units, ranges, and allowed values are stable and documented.


    **Base path:** all data routes live under `/api/v1`. Every dataset is addressed by its bare name (names are unique), e.g. `act_scores`.


    **Discover, don''t hard-code.** `GET /api/v1/datasets` lists every dataset (compact; `?fields=full` for everything); `GET /api/v1/search?q=` finds one by meaning; `GET /api/v1/datasets/{name}` returns its schema (columns, units, the exact filter parameters with their allowed values, and a runnable `recommended_query` URL); `GET /api/v1/datasets/{name}/rows` returns the data.


    **Note on filters:** every categorical column of a dataset is its own filter parameter, so the filters differ per dataset and are listed in the dataset''s schema (`filters`), not in this generic document. `GET /api/v1/datasets/{name}/openapi.json` is a per-dataset OpenAPI document with every filter and its allowed values, for function-calling clients that need one. Human docs: https://georgiacivicdata.org/api; agent reference: https://georgiacivicdata.org/llms-full.txt.


    **R and Python packages:** `georgiacivicdata` on CRAN and PyPI wraps this API and returns data frames. Docs: https://georgiacivicdata.org/r/ and https://georgiacivicdata.org/py/ (overview: https://georgiacivicdata.org/packages).


    **License:** data and documentation are licensed CC BY 4.0. Credit "Georgia Civic Data (georgiacivicdata.org)" and the original source. The license covers our cleaning, standardization, compilation, and documentation; source data stays under its original publisher''s terms (each dataset names its source). Every response carries a `Link: ; rel="license"` header, and `GET /api/v1/datasets` returns the terms as a `license` object. Details: https://georgiacivicdata.org/about#license.'
