An open-source Python package and Iceberg lakehouse that collects, normalizes, and aggregates Brazilian government data.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-25 issue.

Field notes

The project organizes Brazilian public data around the seven-digit IBGE municipality code, giving its datasets a consistent geographic key across 14 tables and 12 domains. Its documented workflow includes pipeline execution, data-quality and fetch commands through the CLI, and snapshot downloads published as GitHub Releases. The page describes both a zero-infrastructure SQLite route and deployment through AWS S3 Tables, MinIO with Nessie, or another Iceberg REST catalog.
