This is great, Deirdre, thanks for sharing. Do you know if anyone has looked at which G8 Action Plan datasets are common outside the G8 countries?

It provides an overview of datasets defined in the G8 Open Data Action Plans from UK, Japan, Canada, Russia, France, Italy, the U.S. and the EU (Germany's Action Plan not yet available). I've also included the Danish Basic Register datasets, and the datasets used by OKFN's Open Data census and the Web Foundation and ODI's Open Data Barometer for comparison. This comparison is based on my interpretation and may be incomplete. Different Action Plans define datasets at different levels of granularity, so comparing datasets was sometimes not like with like.
