How to publish a dataset on the AOC Open Data Portal (step by step)

Publishing open data is a key step towards advancing transparència, reuse of public information and open government. To facilitate this task for local entities, from the Barcelona Provincial Council, in its space Local.IA puts at your disposal a practical video workshop which explains how to publish a dataset to Open Data Portal of the AOC manually.

Check out the video workshop

A video tutorial designed for town halls and local entities

This video tutorial is especially aimed at local councils and organizations who want to get started in publishing open data or who need to reinforce basic knowledge of the process.

Throughout the video it is explained, in a clear and understandable way, how:

  • Access the AOC Open Data portal
  • Create a new dataset
  • Enter the necessary metadata (title, description, subject, license, etc.)
  • Add resources such as files or links
  • Publish the dataset so that it is accessible to the public

The whole process is shown happened to country, with practical examples, which allows you to follow the video tutorial while the actual publication is being made.

Why is this resource useful?

Manually publishing data is often the first step in getting started with open data. This video helps:

  • Reduce technical doubts in the publication process
  • Ensure that data is published correctly and with appropriate metadata
  • Promote the reuse of public information
  • Progress in fulfilling obligations in the field of transparència and open data

A recommended resource for both people who are new to open data and those who want to refresh their knowledge and ensure that they are following good practices.

This resource is part of the Do It Yourself Space of the Barcelona Provincial Council (Local.IA), conceived as a practical and collaborative learning environment aimed at public administration professionals who want to explore, experiment and deepen their knowledge of the emerging technologies that are transforming public management. From the AOC, we collaborate with the Barcelona Provincial Council to progressively expand the resources available in the field of publication and reuse of open data.
