Public Insight to Add Statistical Areas to Platform

The August 2016 Public Insight release provides extensive improvements in search capabilities, data source audit trails, and multi-level database extracts. The text searching capability allows you to type any search term and Public Insight will return a list of data sources and path to the metrics containing the search term….

In the most recent data update to the Public Insight platform, Public Insight’s K-12 school district metrics have been updated to include the national “Common Core of Data” (CCD) data set. This update includes multiple new topics and series for enrollment and staffing from the CCD.

Public Insight has just added Student Charges from the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) to the web platform. This data set was loaded for national higher education entities and will include a new “Student Charges” category, as well as new topics and series for higher education.

Public Insight, whose software optimizes the utility of public data sets for decision support and analysis, announced the release of its May 2016 update. Highlighting this update are enhancements to OmniView, a premium subscriber analytical tool built from the ground-up for broad, comprehensive analysis across data sources, metrics, and time.

With this new update, a host of new features will be released including a crosswalk between higher education degrees awarded and market place jobs, as well as a new custom metric generator called “Metric Builder”.
