Open data Local government materials that have been worked on

Materials such as a list of local governments that have taken open data initiatives are posted.

Data Disclosure Methods under the Open Data Promotion Guidelines for Local Governments

The data could be published on a website operated by a local government (by opening an open data site on part of an official site or on an independent site), posted on a website operated by a government agency or a private organization, or built as a data catalog site with a cross-sector search function.

If the data is published on a website other than the official website, it is necessary to indicate that the external website is used and the URL of the website where the data is published so that users can easily access the data.
