Analytics provider Omniture has announced a Web community designed to help its customers build applications that use their Omniture data.

SiteCatalyst data can be used across third-party aplications, such as an intranet or as a company branded application. Data can be used to create calculated metrics, or format the data to meet specific Internet needs. Developers can also use the data collection API to integrate SiteCatalyst with apps that can't easily be tagged with JavaScript.

Omniture has provided a Getting Started guide (for users with a SiteCatalyst login) which helps new users through the process of learning the prerequisites, enabling the Web services APIs, and testing and authenticating newly developed applications.
