Tools and resources for data use
IATI data is there to be used and there are plenty of ways for you to get the most out of it.
Different IATI data users have different questions to answer, want to see data in different ways or download it in different formats; some merely want to see it, others want to integrate it with more data to create something completely new.
To satisfy the variety of needs there are a range of tools and resources to help you use IATI data in the ways that you want. The IATI technical team maintains a variety of tools and resources to help users and there is a growing array of tools and applications built by third parties external to IATI.
Broadly, the available tools fall into two categories: those that require no specialist expertise to use (‘non-technical tools’) and those intended mainly for use by people with technical skills such as software developers or data scientists (‘technical tools’).
