There is a lot of news that talks about the impact that the use of open data has on the economy of countries or on business opportunities for both traditional companies and new entrepreneurs.

However, there is another social aspect of open data that is more unknown and that, although it is not talked about so much, is even more important because of its potential to improve accountability and public services. such as education, health, public safety and the environment and to improve the lives of citizens. We already talked about it in general in the article on the value of open data for administrations, but what success stories and good practices can we highlight?

We offer you case studies and examples of how we can apply the benefits of open data in services that we use in our daily life. And now, what cases would you highlight in our house?
