2013-03-01 01:11:15	Maxious	68
2013-03-24 05:01:56	Alex Sadleir	69	Please note, there are a combination of Analysis and Visualisation tools in each of the major categories below.
2013-03-01 01:11:15	Maxious	70
		71	# API Development {#api-development}
		72
		73
		74	So an API isn’t just an XML file ![;)](http://www.govhack.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
		75
		76	A good web based data API:
		77
		78	* Is logically organised
2013-04-03 12:20:29	Alex Sadleir	79	* Can filter returned data
2013-03-01 01:11:15	Maxious	80	* Can return results in different open formats (CSV/JSON etc.)
		81	* Is efficient and responsive by using caching and databases appropriately
		82	* Handles errors gracefully
		83	* Monitors and controls access (to show benefit realised of API and prevent abuse)
		84	* Provides appropriate documentation with examples
2013-03-01 03:43:59	Maxious	85
		86	Some people like sensis [http://](http://developers.sensis.com.au/)[developers.sensis.com.<wbr>au</wbr>](http://developers.sensis.com.au/)[/](http://developers.sensis.com.au/) use a provider like[http://](http://mashery.com/)[mashery.com](http://mashery.com/)[/](http://mashery.com/) or [https](https://apigee.com/)[://](https://apigee.com/)[apigee.com](https://apigee.com/) or [http://](http://apiaxle.com/)[apiaxle.com](http://apiaxle.com/)[/](http://apiaxle.com/) or [http://www.3scale.net/](http://www.3scale.net/) which handles making a good API for them.

		109
2013-03-03 10:00:40	maxious	110	buildAR was the world’s first AR Content Management System with the first early version launched back in 200\. as a bit of a test to see if people were interested in being able to create their own augmented experiences. MOB Labs officially launched the new improved buildAR at the Augmented Reality event in Silicon Valley in May 2011.
		111
		112	[http://buildAR.com](http://buildar.com/) (normally a 1\. day free trial but GovHack attendees on the day will get a fully activated account for a month. If you are a GovHack attendee want full access now to play, just sign up for a trial and then forward your GovHack Eventbrite registration email to govhack [at] buildar.com and they’ll set you up for the free month fully activated account within a couple of days.
