Friday Free Stuff: Government Open Data Initiatives
13 April 2012
New Zealand isn't the only country doing this - the USA's Data.gov links to 31 countries with governmental open data websites.
And lots of people are doing fantastic things with the datasets. One lovely one, from France, is Monuments historiques, which uses governmental and other open data to which let you search or browse for the data, description, and images of nearly 44,000 monuments in France by type, historic period, region -- or Metro stop.
