    AMAtlas Data Miner

    AMAtlas Data Miner includes more than 350 variables on charitable giving to educational institutions collected through the online Voluntary Support of Education (VSE) survey. Users have access to 20 years of VSE survey data from approximately 1,000 public and private U.S. higher education institutions and a select group of private precollege institutions. The data can be downloaded in CSV format.

    AMAtlas Data Miner's functionality also enables users to create groups of institutions to study—called comparison groups. These can be designed manually, by listing institutions, or they can be designed by querying the system for like features, such as location, control, type of institution, and more.

It also maps the survey data fields to their corresponding variables in Data Miner.

    The AMAtlas Data Miner Visual Guide provides screenshots and step-by-step instructions for creating data outputs.

    The Alumni Engagement Metrics (AEM) Guide provides information about about the AEM survey data variables in Data Miner and instructions for accessing a summary report and creating custom AEM data reports.
