Open Council Data - standards for publishing open council data

Here’s a handy resource for publishing open council data to a standard so is can easily be compared and combined.

@wmcintosh can you tell us what’s planned for the Open Council Data project?

I see there are many ways for people to participate.

Hi Stephen,
From a council perspective we’re trying to assist other councils to open their data sets to data.gov.au.

The second part is to work towards some common data fields to be used. This will make it easier for data to be combined.

At the moment we’re encouraging all councils to get involved and assisting where we can.

Will
