[okfn-discuss] Is there a catalog of Open Data Applications

Tue Oct 22 22:18:10 UTC 2013

HI Feng, I have a few places for you to search (See below). It would help
us if you could provide specific types of issues that people would like to
see technical solutions address.  There are likely some examples globally.
(eg. extraction, water tracking, etc.)

Examples from the various World Bank apps challenges:

http://data.worldbank.org/apps  and
http://appsfordevelopment.challengepost.com/

I think that the city reps from the various Open Data Days might be on this
list. See the Open Data Day wiki:
http://wiki.opendataday.org/2013/City_Events

Code for America:
http://www.codeforamerica.org/apps/

With Random Hacks of Kindness, there were also a few examples:
http://www.rhok.org/ (check the blog)

The Space Apps challenge also has a few great examples:

http://spaceappschallenge.org/

One thing that I have yet to see (a big dream), is a master search across
all the events and github for these examples. I agree that is a gap.

Happy hunting,

Heather
