Concur APIs let you build an expense/travel dataset that can easily be mashed up with other APIs
Last June, three of four finalists that made it to Round 2 of WearableWorld's hackathon used Concur APIs - https://www.concur.com/blog/en-us/wearable-world-hackathon
Concur provides expense and travel management solutions for business travelers. The APIs give you access to a Concur user's expense history (e.g. $30 spent on Starbucks in the past 4 business trips) and itinerary information (e.g. Landing in SFO Dec 16, 2014, staying at The Marriot for 4 days). You are also free to push this information to Concur through the APIs. This lets you tell your own story/scenario during your hack presentation.
The following are curl examples on how to GET information from the Travel/Itinerary and Expense APIs, respectively -
curl https://www.concursolutions.com/api/travel/trip/v1.1
-H "Authorization: OAuth -insert your access token here-"
curl https://www.concursolutions.com/api/v3.0/expense/reportdigests
-H "Authorization: OAuth -insert your access token here-"
-H "Accept: application/json"
To get your access token for this hackathon, please email chris.ismael@concur.com . You can also learn how to push information back to Concur by checking out this hackathon resource - http://ismaelc.github.io/ConcurHackathon/ . Concur SDKs are available at https://github.com/concur
We highly encourage you to mash up our APIs with the others. (e.g. Uber - alert drivers when X business travelers are checking out from The Marriot and are on their way to the airport; Use BluVision or Indoors to identify if business traveler is near a shop relevant to him/her - coffee, because his Concur expense history indicates he buys a lot of coffee). You can also check out this link for past Concur submissions in Challengepost - http://challengepost.com/software/built-with/concur
Good luck!
