Data and Reports

SIRI curates and analyzes key datasets, research papers, and policy reports to illuminate the world’s most pressing issues.
From economic shifts and demographic trends to sustainability and social innovation, our goal is to translate complex data into accessible insights.

We draw from credible sources — including U.S. and international agencies — to provide transparent, evidence-based perspectives that inform change.

Through these reports, SIRI aims to bridge research and real-world application, helping decision-makers and communities move from information to action.

Environmental Data

From daily weather forecasts, severe storm warnings, and climate monitoring to fisheries management, coastal restoration and supporting marine commerce, NOAA’s products and services support economic vitality and affect more than one-third of America’s gross domestic product.

NOAA’s dedicated scientists use cutting-edge research and high-tech instrumentation to provide citizens, planners, emergency managers and other decision makers with reliable information they need when they need it.

Economic Indicators

We are the world’s most trusted, impartial source of comprehensive data about the U.S. economy. Every five years the Census Bureau conducts an Economic Census and Census of Governments, in addition to more than 100 other surveys conducted monthly, quarterly, or annually.

From these censuses and surveys 13 economic indicators are produced, serving as the foundation for gross domestic product (GDP). Produced by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, GDP data is ranked as one of the three most influential economic measures that affect U.S. financial markets.

Population Statistics

Data from the decennial census plays a critical role in U.S. commerce and the economy by providing information on the population and demographics of our country. With the upcoming 2030 Census, the Census Bureau will conduct the most automated and technologically advanced decennial census in history.

In addition, the annual release of detailed social, economic, and housing data from the American Community Survey—which replaced the decennial census long form in 2005—is used for many important decisions. People increasingly depend on Census Bureau population and income data to make decisions on business locations and investments in real estate. Communities rely on our data to measure the demand for housing, predict future needs, and identify trends.

America’s Data Agency

Creating a robust economy requires an enormous amount of data, and we are the nation’s preeminent producer of public data. More than 30 million U.S. business enterprises, 325 million Americans, and 93,000 tribal, state, and local governments rely on our data to make informed decisions.

The information and data we produce shape fiscal and monetary policy and operational decisions that improve the nation’s social and economic conditions. Annually, more than $1 trillion in federal funds are distributed to states and localities, in whole or in part, using data produced by the Department.
