Odesi is a web-based data exploration, extraction and analysis tool. It is the product of a unique partnership between university libraries, business, and government, which greatly improves access to statistical data for researchers, teachers, and students. Odesi provides researchers the ability to search for survey questions (variables) across hundreds of datasets held in a growing number of collections. Odesi supports basic tabulation and analysis online, and allows for the downloading of most datasets into statistical software for further analysis. Odesi provides unprecedented access to extensive collections of polling and social survey data. Key polling data collections include: Canadian Opinion Research Archive (CORA) , Canadian Gallup, and Ipsos Reid. Statistics Canada's public-use survey data forms the core of Odesi's social survey data holdings. Odesi is expanding its survey data to include other national and international data sources.
