Week 10 Database Searches

I worked ahead a bit on last weeks assignment, not on purpose, and thought we were supposed to find three separate data sources not databases.  I searched the library for key words electric vehicle, electric car, electric charging station and other similar terms to find the following data sources I will be using in my research assignment.

Austin’s plug in everywhere data will allow me to see data on this type of charging option to make an analysis on whether it is a good option for the future of electronic vehicles. https://catalog.data.gov/dataset/plug-in-everywhere-charging-station-network

Data on overall trends in vehicle registrations by vehicle type (car vs. truck), fuel type, and model year showing the changes in adoption trends over time and average fuel economies. This will help me predict the need for innovation in charging options for vehicles.

The catalog choice below provides information on Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment Stations to make prediction on availability on supplies needed for charging electronic vehicles.
