JAPANESE CITY DATA
Prepper Open Data Bank provides various open data in Japan that can be processed immediately without data preparation.
*All data has been released to the public. The BETA version is scheduled to close at the end of March 2025.
･PODB Schema
Survey statistics data are compiled in a single table, "City Survey Statistical Data [CI_ST]," without dividing the table according to the survey, such as the Census and the Housing and Land Survey. In order to make it easier to understand the contents of each column shown in "City Survey Statistical Data [CI_ST]," we also created a table of statistical survey attribute information, "City Survey Statistical Data Master [CI_ST_MST]," and a table of statistical survey summary information, "City Survey Master [CI_TB_MST].
We prepared geographic information such as the "City Master [CI_MST]" that combines the municipal code and name, the "Representative Point Data of Municipalities [CI_GEO_PT]" based on the National Land Information's office information, and the "Polygon Data of Municipalities [CI_GEO_PG]" based on the polygon of National Spatial Data.
･E_PODB, J_PODB Schema
We also share a view with minimum columns for each statistical survey which is classified by category and survey year, so that users can use only the necessary statistical surveys. In addition, it is combined with the City Master [CI_MST] and assigned a municipal code and name.
*Municipal representative point data is based on latitude and longitude data for government and municipal offices from the Geospatial Information Authority of Japan (GSI). However, due to a website update, the source data is currently inaccessible. At the time of the next census, we plan to provide information using alternative open data.
