Regional Data Network
Czech-Bavarian Open Data Network
The RegionalData project creates a cross-border network aimed at developing connection and cooperation between open data owners and digital service providers in the South Bohemia-Bavaria region.
This digital networking focuses especially on state administrations, municipalities and public organisations that are most active in data opening.
The project Czech-Bavarian Network for Open Data is co-financed under the Cross-border Cooperation Programme Free State of Bavaria – Czech Republic Objective ECA 2014-2020.
For many local and regional initiatives and institutions, providing open data is becoming a common way of sharing information with public. Digitalisation, transparency, easy accessibility of information and unrestricted sharing are a phenomenon of our times. Open data has various meanings and plays an important role depending on the area and purpose of use. It brings a fundamental change in the philosophy of access to information and becoming an integral part of most areas of public life.
