US Power Plant Facilities

Dataset Identification:

Resource Abstract:
This resource provides location and other data for 7,000+ power plants across the US. Data was provided from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) Application Programming Interface (API) at http://www.eia.gov/beta/api/index.cfm, and published as a web feature service, a web map service, an ESRI service and as an Excel workbook for the National Geothermal Data System. The Excel workbook contains 4 worksheets, including the data, resource provider information, a field list (data mapping view), and notes related to revisions of the template. ETL (extract, transform, load) was performed by Arizona Geological Survey, enabling the data to conform to NGDS Power Plant Facilities model for interoperability. There is also a helpful accompanying EIA web map application available at http://www.eia.gov/state/.
