Beyond business — the impacts of open data

[Julia Keserű]

Hey all,

Sunlight`s Local team created a resource document on the impacts of open data with some great practical examples from US localities. We were particularly interested in the way open data helps to increase transparency, accountability, service quality and public participation, so we collected examples that emphasize its effects beyond the economic value.

 

Here`s the blog post that summarizes our efforts: http://sunlightfoundation.com/blog/2014/04/22/beyond-business-the-impacts-of-open-data/ 

And the document itself: http://www.scribd.com/doc/219477511/The-Impacts-of-Open-Data 

Best,

Julia
