Open data systems provide a foundation for civic innovation. While cities collect vast quantities of data through sensors and other means, many struggle to compile data into useful and publicly available formats that can be accessed not only by local government decision makers, but also to the public, while ensuring privacy and security. By making public data available to city staff, developers, non-profit organizations, and the public, cities can streamline service delivery and operations, stimulate partnerships, and empower and engage residents. Learn from data officers from Los Angeles and others about how they are leveraging data to advance city and regional goals.
