This site is building an overview of European initiatives and activities around Open Government Data. See how you can help.

While working on Open Gov Data it became clear to us that there are lots of European initiatives, data sets and examples that are hard to find outside their own language area.
Therefore this site aims to be a collection of pointers

On a country by country basis we will collect and share pointers to three types of content:

- Data sets, pointers with short descriptions of what's available;
- Initiatives, pointers to policy initiatives, competitions, barcamps. Also as examples of what you can do in your own country;
- Mashups, example applications based on open government data.

Currently we're listing 11 mash-ups, 13 initiatives, 11 data sources, with many more on the todo list.

We hope these pointers can serve as a source of inspiration, as a source of awareness, and as a source of leverage in dealing with your own government. See how you can help.

This website is an initiative of Ton Zijlstra and James Burke.
