About

Data.CDC.gov is the central enterprise open data clearinghouse of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, hosted on the Tyler Technologies Socrata open data platform. It catalogs hundreds of machine-readable datasets spanning infectious disease surveillance, COVID Data Tracker archives, national immunization coverage surveys (NIS), chronic disease indicators, behavioral risk factors (BRFSS), and environmental health tracking.

Through Fibric, an operator references standardized national public health indicators, vaccination coverage benchmarks, and chronic disease prevalence tables to calibrate corporate wellness investments, assess community health profiles, and fulfill occupational compliance documentation.

This is a reference listing. It documents what Fibric would read from Data.CDC.gov and what it could propose, based on the publisher's published interfaces. Fibric builds it under a managed deployment when you request it; selecting it here installs nothing.

Inputs

  • Searchable catalog of machine-readable public health tables, geographic spatial layers, and epidemiological surveys
  • COVID Data Tracker historical time-series datasets spanning cases, testing positivity, vaccinations, and county transmission levels
  • National Immunization Survey (NIS) vaccination coverage estimates across childhood, adolescent, and adult populations
  • Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) state-level chronic condition and health behavior prevalence data
  • SODA REST API endpoints providing JSON, CSV, and XML output with SoQL filtering and aggregation

Proposed actions

Read-only. This feed informs operators; it changes nothing.

Proposed actions are target capabilities. Every action runs propose-first and needs a validated deployment and the appropriate permissions.

What you can build

  • Benchmark community vaccination rates around retail and field hubs

    Query National Immunization Survey datasets to evaluate county-level vaccination rates, proposing targeted on-site vaccination programs and employee health incentives.

    With Shift Coverage, Site Benchmark

  • Audit regional health risk indicators for worker safety planning

    Analyze county chronic health indicators from BRFSS tables, proposing ergonomic and heat stress training programs for field teams in vulnerable regions.

    With Compliance Evidence, Shift Coverage

Requirements

  • HTTP client capable of issuing SODA SoQL queries (where, select, group, order) against dataset four-by-four identifiers
  • Optional Socrata application token header (X-App-Token) for sustained automated querying
  • Data dictionary parsing to map CDC variable codes to internal operational indicators
Authentication
None. Datasets on data.cdc.gov are freely accessible via open SODA endpoints; an optional Socrata App Token raises anonymous rate limits.

Limits

  • Individual dataset publication frequencies vary widely from daily updates to annual survey releases
  • Schema alterations or dataset deprecations can occur as CDC programs transition surveillance methodologies
  • Unauthenticated API requests are subject to standard Socrata client IP rate throttling

Questions and answers

What API protocols does Data.CDC.gov support?
The portal uses the Socrata Open Data API (SODA), supporting RESTful JSON, CSV, and XML queries with SoQL parameter filtering.
Is registration or an API key required to access data?
No. Data is publicly queryable without registration, though creating a free Socrata app token allows higher request volume.
What license governs datasets on data.cdc.gov?
Unless otherwise noted, all datasets are public domain works of the United States Government and may be reused without fee.
