All Things Missouri (www.AllThingsMissouri.org) is a free online resource that can help media outlets enhance their reporting and storytelling by providing context and insights, identifying trends, and enabling comparisons among geographical areas.

Created by University of Missouri Extension’s Center for Applied Research and Engagement Systems (CARES), All Things Missouri aggregates data from a wide range of sources, enabling journalists to explore that data within a single easy-to-use interface and create customized interactive maps and reports.

The platform incorporates up-to-date, quality data across sectors – including business, nonprofit, government, health care and education – to help Missourians better understand community needs, allocate resources and make more data-informed decisions.

Short video tutorials and two-page guides are available to help users get started. Sets of starter maps and reports on various topics provide selected groupings of indicators that reporters can use to find relevant data that help tell a compelling story.

The Missouri Map Room offers more than 30,000 data layers from reliable secondary sources at the local, state and national level.
