Well, last time in June we took Russian rail "RZD" data as example and
final result based on RZD timetables openness, but this is not completely
right since rail transport is not the only national level transport in
Russia. Also we have inland waterways, air transport timetables and so on.
I think that this is just one of issues to reorganize census to the *more
structured" form.

Yes, right now we have no one source for environmental data. Actually this
data available on about dozen websites. Also most pollution data is not
under _national level_ government responsibility.
