Right now we're pulling data from YTM1, which no one thinks is a good source of data.  Yale is building a new source of data through a portal using Layer 7.  This provides all of the same data, plus some additional elements as well.

<ServiceResponse>
<Buildings>
	<Building>
		<SITE>ATH</SITE>
		<BUILDING>3600</BUILDING>
		<BUILDING_ABBR>YALEBOWL</BUILDING_ABBR>
		<DESCRIPTION>YALE BOWL</DESCRIPTION>
		<USAGE_DESCRIPTION>ATHLETICS</USAGE_DESCRIPTION>
		<ADDRESS_1>CENTRAL AVENUE, 81</ADDRESS_1>
		<ADDRESS_2>NEW HAVEN, CT</ADDRESS_2>
		<ADDRESS_3>06511</ADDRESS_3>
		<STATUS>OPEN</STATUS>
		<ADDR1_ALIAS>81 CENTRAL AVENUE</ADDR1_ALIAS>
		<MSAG_ALIAS>CENTRAL AVE, 81</MSAG_ALIAS>
		<LATITUDE>41.313091</LATITUDE>
		<LONGITUDE>-72.960451</LONGITUDE>
</Building>
...

Here's an example endpoint.  The data can come either via XML or JSON.  ServiceNow doesn't appear to accept JSON natively at the moment however.  The source of the data is FAM1.
