NYC Data treasure trove to be revealed next week

Data lovers, this is your moment.

Next Wednesday at Civic Hall, the city’sOpen Data team will present several new datasets and release its annual report.

The event is free and open to the public.

The Open Data team is a joint venture between Mayor’s Office of Data Analytics (MODA) and the Department of Information Technology and Telecommunications (DoITT) and has a nice mission: “We believe that every New Yorker can benefit from Open Data, and Open Data can benefit from every New Yorker.”

Last year we had a great interview with Stefaan Verhulst, of the GovLab, about how open data can improve the world from the local to international level.
