Open Data in Edmonton
First public workshop on Open Data facilitated by the City of Edmonton is held Saturday, Nov. 21, 2009, at City Hall.
What does Open Data mean to you? A business opportunity for app development, better access to service info, government transparency, accountability...? This activity builds on ChangeCamp thread: http://www.connect2edmonton.ca/forum...ad.php?t=14523 For additional information and registration, visit: http://edmonton.ca/opendata A few example of similar initiatives in other municipalities include the following.
