Iana-Data
The IANA-Data project consolidates structured information about top-level domains (TLDs) into a single accessible format. It provides a comprehensive dataset that includes details about TLD types, management organizations, and associated DNS information. The initiative aims to enhance the exploration and understanding of the TLD ecosystem.
- ▪The project fetches nightly copies of IANA and ICANN data to create a unified dataset.
- ▪It includes information on all top-level domains, their types, and management details.
- ▪The dataset aims to answer various questions about TLDs, such as their delegation status and IDN equivalents.

iana-data Tl;dr IANA and ICANN publish a lot of canonical, interesting, and useful structured information about the top-level domain namespace. This project fetches nightly copies of their data, and jams it into a single data/generated/tlds.json file so that it's all in a single place. It's sort of an API-in-a-box, for exploring the TLD cinematic universe. It's small data, so this git repo has the change history from each nightly snapshot. For example: All top-level domains Their ASCII & Unicode IDN variants Their ccTLD or gTLD type The names of the adminstrative and technical orgs that manage them Their DNS nameservers, IPv4 & IPv6 addresses, and associated ASNs and AS orgs Their WHOIS and RDAP server URLs Their ICANN registry agreement types, e.g. brand, etc. Etc.
