BYTES AND MORTAR: USING OPEN DATA TO GROW YOUR BIZ - APRIL 9
The City of Philadelphia manages a
significant amount of data. More and more of this information is made available
publicly in a push to promote transparency through what is called the
"Open Data" movement. As this movement grows, so do the possibilities
for companies to use city data to grow their business, such as:
An alarm system company using crime data to inform their
outreach
A recycling or composting company utilizing food license
data
A pest control company tracking which properties have been
cited for vermin
What new uses will you discover?
Join software developers, business owners, and city officials to learn more
about what information the City makes public and how open data can support
businesses, too.
