  Hi,

  does anyone out there know of a free datafeeds I can avail of to build up a good end-to-end BI solution.

  If there's anything out there that will allow an end reporting solution with good meaningful dimensional data I'd appreciate it.

  With Dimensions such as time, geography, good fact data and some categories.

  Any help welcome 🙂

  Thanks,

  Eamon

  Hi,

  Depending on where you are in the world you may or may not find this site interesting/useful.

  I've never done anything with it myself but it looks like you can get MET office data for free. Daily forecasts for example...

  Hope that helps.

  Thanks Simon,

  NASA do a similar intergalactic feed along with data for finding extra terrestrial beings!

  Might be too scientific for me though and I very much appreciate the reply.

  Any other suggestions out there?

  Cheers,
