I am developing a quick and fun little app which will display in a lobby. All it really does is go country to country showing flag, population, etc…. for all countries particapting in this years olympics.
I am reusing code we created for the 2010 olympics, and one of its features was a feed how many medals each country had won (plus a total count on the side). The data was hosted on the offical website, but has since been removed. Its easy to build out this feature, but it makes the app much more interesting if I can get it working
Is there an free API available anywhere which feeds this information?
I googled “olympic data feed”. The first two results were:
http://odf.olympictech.org/
http://odf.olympictech.org/help.htm
Down the page, I saw this:
http://www.stats.com/olympics.asp
Sounds like they are the official data people for the 2012 olympics.
