Good job! Seems like writing the python wrappers and making the data more accessible was an important accomplishment. I'd say your summer was well spent!

Question: on madewithdata.com, when searching for the nearest radiation facility, is there no facility name included in the lat/lng data?


Thanks, man. I believe most have a `PRIMARY_NAME` key — but I can't guarantee they all do. The RADInfo data is suprisingly patchy in some parts — but I did manage to download it all from the API and convert it to JSON (the link should be near the bottom of the page to download).
