# Boundary Functions
Use the following functions to retrieve [Boundary](/cartodb-platform/dataobservatory/overview/#boundary-data) data. Data ranges from small areas (e.g. US Census Block Groups) to large areas (e.g. Countries). You can access boundaries by point location lookup, bounding box lookup, direct ID access and several other methods described below.

# Measures Functions
[Data Observatory Measures](/cartodb-platform/dataobservatory/overview/#measures-methods) are the numerical location data you can access. The measure Functions allow you to access individual measures to augment your own data or integrate in your analysis workflows. Measures are used by sending an identifier or a geometry (Point or Polygon) and receiving back a measure (an absolute value) for that location.

There are hundreds of Measures and the list is growing with each release. You can currently discover and learn about measures contained in the Data Observatory by downloading our [Data Catalog](https://cartodb.github.io/bigmetadata/observatory.pdf).
