[datacatalogs] Fwd: Building an inventory of open data portals in Scotland

Mon May 26 21:08:55 UTC 2014

Hi,

I think at least some of the items in my list below are candidates for http://new.datacatalogs.org/. Does anyone want to help in deciding which entries are worth migrating across? 

Thanks,

Ewan

> I’ve been building a list of 'open data portals' in Scotland, i.e. places where collections of (mostly government) data are published in a more-or-less open way.
> 
> The list is just a CSV file on GitHub: https://github.com/okfnscot/open-data-scotland/blob/master/scotland-data-portals.csv
> 
> There is a slightly prettier HTML page generated from the CSV: http://okfnscot.github.io/open-data-scotland/
> 
> And I wrote a short blog post which provides some context: http://scot.okfn.org/2014/04/24/scotlands-open-data/
> 
> I am curious to see whether putting the information up on GitHub will make it easier for others to contribute. Nothing has come in so far, but it’s relatively early days.
