Methodology, citation, and license.

InfoAcademy.ai publishes one new interactive data chart each week, sourced from public U.S. datasets and built for citation in research, presentations, and classroom use.

How charts are built

Every chart starts from a public dataset — BLS, Census, BEA, CDC, DOE, and similar. Where a real published number exists at the level we're showing (state totals, national sector trends), we use it directly. Where the public data isn't broken down to the level we want — for example, sector × state cells that BLS only releases on request — we model the breakdown from national trends and the state's economic mix, and we disclose this clearly in the chart's footer.

v1 figures are clearly labeled "modeled." Verified citable cell-level breakdowns ship with InfoAcademy Pro.

How to cite

Each chart page includes a suggested citation in the footer. The general form is:
