    • About Us

    Census Open Innovation Labs (COIL) is a nimble, startup-like team within the U.S. Census Bureau with a portfolio of projects that are setting a standard for open innovation across government. 

    COIL works to solve national challenges by improving open government data collection, how it is shared with the public and who is included in federal open data and its outcomes. The team trailblazes human-centered ways for all people in America to be represented by data, though crowdsourcing, facilitating new technologies and competitions, and supporting government changemakers.
