Best Practices for Open Government Data

[Jon Bartholomew]

Hello friends,

I just wanted to share this document with you, as I thought it contains a significant amount of good points about open government data as we move forward to make Oregon’s government work better. Transparency is key to ensuring the best functioning government, and this article provides some very clear suggestions ranging from general principles to specific file formats that should be used.
