Global Open Data Index

The Global Open Data Index measures how accessible and usable government data is worldwide. It assesses how well countries publish essential information, like budgets, elections, and transportation data, in open formats that anyone can use and share. The goal is to promote transparency, accountability, and better services by encouraging governments to make their data openly available to the public. The index provides a ranking of countries based on their openness, helping to identify where improvements are needed and fostering global efforts to make information more accessible for citizens and organizations alike.
