Closed this issue · 2 comments

The City of San Jose is committed to freely sharing as much information as possible. We recognize that information is a valuable resource and a strategic asset to the public. Making information accessible, discoverable, and usable by the public can help fuel entrepreneurship, innovation, scientific discovery, and a more efficient government.

In 2016 the City will launch an open data portal and adopt an open data policy. Over the next few months, the City will gather community input through a digital survey and a series of public events.
