GovWayback is a simple tool to quickly access archived versions of government websites from before January 20, 2025 - just add "wayback.com" after ".gov" in any government URL. GovWayback automatically redirects you to that page's archived version from the Internet Archive.
GovWayback only redirects to Internet Archive's archives. Please consider donating to them as they're doing the hard work of preserving websites.
This independent project is not affiliated with the Internet Archive or Wayback Machine, it only redirects to it. And to that end: we strongly recommend donating to the Internet Archive. GovWayback is an independent tool that helps people access the Internet Archive's public records of government websites.
DataHoarding.org is an index of resources and archives related to data hoarding, web archival and self hosting. It was inspired by the recent purge of online information by govenment agencies, corporations and others, and aims to provide easier access to tools and information. The goal is not only to hoard data, but parse and index it as well.
Among the mirrors they have:
- FEMA
- kernel.org
- Kiwix
- NOAA
- textfiles.com
- Youtube
The nationwide RadNet system monitors the nation's air to track radiation in the environment. Over time, RadNet sample testing and monitoring results show the fluctuations in normal background levels of environmental radiation. The RadNet system will also detect higher than normal radiation levels during a radiological incident.
I don't know if they have an API but there is a way to download parts of their data as CSV files.

The State Climate Summaries provided here were initially produced to meet the demand for state-level climate information in the wake of the Third U.S. National Climate Assessment. This 2022 version provides new information and extends the historical climate record to 2020 for each state. The summaries cover assessment topics directly related to NOAA’s mission, specifically historical climate variations and trends, future climate model projections of climate conditions during the 21st century, and past and future conditions of sea level and coastal flooding. Additional background information and links are given below.
The AirNow Fire and Smoke Map provides information that you can use to help protect your health from wildfire smoke. Use this map to see:
- Current particle pollution air quality information for your location
- Fire locations and smoke plumes
- Smoke Forecast Outlooks, where available
- Recommendations for actions to take to protect yourself from smoke. These recommendations were developed by EPA scientists who are experts in air quality and health.
The Map is a collaborative effort between the U.S. Forest Service (USFS)-led Interagency Wildland Fire Air Quality Response Program and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Doesn't seem to have an API but it can probably be reverse engineered to get at the data.
Official California state government water supply stats. I'm not entirely sure there's an API here but there is interactive graphing that can probably be reverse engineered to get data. The hydrologic overview and reservoir conditions are of particular interest.

Welcome to the website for the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO). Our team of experts is leading the U.S. government’s efforts to address Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) using a rigorous scientific framework and a data-driven approach. Since its establishment in July 2022, AARO has taken important steps to improve data collection, standardize reporting requirements, and mitigate the potential threats to safety and security posed by UAP. We look forward to using this site to regularly update the public about AARO’s work and findings, and to provide a mechanism for UAP reporting. Thank you for visiting.
The U.S. Energy Information Administration is committed to its free and open data by making it available through an Application Programming Interface (API) and its open data tools. Hourly operating data, power generation stats, capabilities, and more.
As part of the OpenFEMA initiative, FEMA is providing read-only API based access to datasets (Entities). The data is exposed using a RESTful interface that uses query string parameters to manage the query. Use of the service is free and does not require a subscription or API key.
A full list of Entities/endpoints supported by the API can be found at Data Sets.
Public data about businesses, government entities, military agencies, police, and so forth throughout the United States.
Our simple tool allows anyone to generate a public records request with all the necessary legal boilerplate, all for free.

Capital Research Center conceived of this project after identifying a need for more fact-based, accurate descriptions of all of the various influencers of public policy issues. Many so-called “watchdog” groups are instead opponents of the outlets they are watching. Armed with 30-years of research and data on advocacy organizations, foundations, and donors, CRC utilizes a universe of well-trained contributors to help build the individual and organizational profiles that populate the website.
CRC has a perspective on the public policy process as well, but this resource is more important than that. We let the information speak for itself—information that frequently is not cited in reports about these individuals and organizations.
InfluenceWatch strives to be comprehensive, and profiles are frequently updated and written in a manner that’s accurate and measured. InfluenceWatch brings unprecedented transparency to the funding, motives, and interconnections of the entities profiled.
The InfluenceWatch team constantly edits published profiles to present up-to-date facts, add new connections, provide more information or context, improve sources, and otherwise strengthen the value of all of the information on the website.
