How to Open Data¶
A practical guide to opening data, for government employees whose job it is to make that happen.
Maybe you’re excited to open your data, maybe you’re just checking off a box, maybe somebody is making you do this. But it’s a thing that has to happen. This is for you.
This is a book in the process of being written, in some areas skeletal in its contents. See the GitHub repository to see what needs to be done and to lend a hand.
