OGD Initiative

The Open Government Data (OGD) Initiative is a government effort to share non-sensitive information with the public in a transparent, accessible, and usable manner. By making data open, government agencies enable citizens, businesses, and organizations to analyze and use it for research, innovation, and improving services. This promotes accountability, encourages participation, and fosters informed decision-making. Essentially, the OGD initiative aims to open up government-held data to help society benefit from increased transparency and collaborative problem-solving.
