Overview
Open Data is data that anyone can access, use, or share and when used well it can be extremely powerful. It enables businesses, citizens, developers, and researchers to harness resources that can make crucial improvements to their communities and the economy. It can also help with the development of new products and services, improve business efficiency and create economic value.
Open Data supports public oversight of governments and helps reduce corruption by enabling greater transparency. For instance, Open Data makes it easier to monitor government activities, such as tracking public budget expenditures and impacts.
