Dataset search tools help you find open data, research collections and public records from many fields. Listings include catalogues, repositories and portals from governments, universities, labs and open projects. Some cover one subject closely, such as genomics, climate or satellite imagery, while others gather datasets across many areas and add filters, previews and download notes. Compare a few side by side and look at the licence, the update date and the file formats offered, since two portals that look alike can carry very different terms. Check whether a catalogue links to the original data or hosts its own copy, because the source usually explains provenance and any limits on reuse.
The Climate Commons Data Catalog is a browsable and searchable catalog focused on climate change data relevant to natural resource conservation in California. It organizes datasets into categories and lists raster and other data with subjects, coverage and resolution, including downscaled climate models, sea-level rise projections and conservation prioritization.
The California Digital Library supports the University of California community's pursuit of scholarship and extends the University's public service mission. It offers services grouped under collecting, publishing, preserving and accessing, including licensed resources, shared print, mass digitization, Calisphere, eScholarship, Dryad, DMP Tool, Merritt, web archiving, WEST and the Online Archive of California.
A portal that enables California state agencies to discover, share, and reuse custom-developed code through a centralized collaboration platform. It also features solutions from state departments, agencies, and local entities.
The California State Geoportal is a site for discovering, analyzing and downloading data. Downloads are offered in CSV, KML, Zip, GeoJSON, GeoTIFF or PNG, and API links are provided for GeoServices, WMS and WFS. Users can analyze data with charts and thematic maps and create StoryMaps and Web Maps.

Cambium is a data and code access layer operated by the MRC Brain Network Dynamics Unit, supporting the MRC CoRE in Restorative Neural Dynamics. It hosts research outputs including datasets and code resources affiliated with the unit's research groups, covering data types such as recorded data, analysis code, modelling materials, and methodological documentation. The platform provides search functionality for these resources.
Open data portal of City of Cambridge, Massachusetts, US.
The Cambridge Structural Database (CSD), maintained by the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre, is the largest curated crystal structure database. It supports structural chemistry research across fields including drug discovery, solid form analysis, and functional materials design, with associated software tools for searching, analysing, and working with crystal structure data. The platform also offers community resources, training support, and data deposit services.

The Canadensys repository is an Integrated Publishing Toolkit (IPT) instance that hosts datasets published by participants of the Canadensys network. As of the listing snapshot, it provides access to 145 hosted resources, with recently updated resources also available via an RSS feed. The platform facilitates data publication and access for network contributors.
The Canadian Astronomy Data Centre is a digital research facility for professional astronomers. It provides telescope data and advanced data products as an open data source for the international astronomy community, provided by the National Research Council of Canada. Documentation covers interactive archive access, web APIs, and data providers.
The Canadian Biodiversity Information Facility (CBIF) is a program operated by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. It supports the Global Biodiversity Information Facility by developing methods to improve the organization, exchange, correlation, and accessibility of primary biological species data relevant to Canadians. The facility’s work supports a wide range of social and economic decision-making, including biodiversity conservation efforts.
Searchable repository for finding chemical solid state and surface datasets and datasets.
Canadian Climate Data and Scenarios is a platform for sharing climate change information. It offers observations, global climate model data from CMIP6 and CMIP5, dynamically and statistically downscaled data, seasonal and decadal forecasts, and derived products such as extreme climate indices. Pages allow display and download of climate datasets.
The Canadian Coast Guard Data Catalogue is part of the CCG e-Navigation portal. It provides access to navigation-related datasets and resources, with 41 listed results including the List of Lights, Buoys and Fog Signals for Pacific Coast, which covers aids to navigation in British Columbia’s coastal waters, rivers, and lakes.
The Canadian Database of Geochemical Surveys is the public interface to a Geological Survey of Canada database that catalogues regional geochemical surveys across Canada. It provides high-level metadata for catalogued surveys and links to spreadsheets and KML maps for standardised raw data, with data presented through an index map query, periodic table search and index tables.
The Canadian Disaster Database holds detailed information on more than 1,000 natural, technological and conflict events, excluding war, since 1900 that directly affected Canadians. It records where and when events occurred, injuries, evacuations, fatalities and estimated costs. The database can be downloaded as a spreadsheet through the Open Government Portal and is updated periodically.
The CEEHRC Network's website explains epigenetics as additional information layered on the genetic code. It offers sections on understanding epigenetics, new articles, publications, and resources for scientists, including IHEC guidelines for reference epigenome standards and standard operating procedures for wet lab experiments and data analysis.
The Canadian Institute for Health Information's access data and reports page is a portal for browsing health system data. It links to recently released indicators on topics such as hospital harm, in-hospital mortality and average length of stay, and offers browsing by topic to find reports, data tables and other resources.
Browse research datasets and geospatial data related to atmospheric, oceanography and climate.
