No sábado, 6 de Março de 2021, o décimo primeiro Dia dos Dados Abertos foi realizado por pessoas de todo o mundo através da organização de centenas de eventos para celebrar, promover e disseminar o uso de dados abertos. Graças aos generosos suportes, a Open Knowledge Foundation foi capaz de apoiar a realização de mais de 60 destes eventos através nosso esquema de minibolsas.

Este evento recebeu uma minibolsa da Open Knowledge Foundation graças ao suporte de the Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery Labs.

Como seu evento celebrou os Dados Abertos?

During this event, the objective was to take advantage of the virtual modality to collaborate with other locations within Mexico and provide a space to the representatives of the local authorities to give visibility to the efforts of open data, transparency and access to information in the cities of León, Mérida and Xalapa.

A panel of local experiences sought to present success stories from each city related to the use, reuse and / or publication of open data for citizen benefit, as well as the challenges that lie ahead at the local level. In addition to this, the event held a series of workshops focused on the use of environmental data, a topic that is of common interest to most citizens of León.

Workshops:

1) Open data, analyzing data on air quality and its pollutants
2) Open source, data collection of trees and native species in the urban environment
3) Open mapping, visualizing water management infrastructure

We used open source tools to gather, process and view data in order to co-design solutions as well as to raise awareness about environmental issues. This was possible thanks to the collaboration of:

Lições aprendidas no evento:

COVID-19 forced us to hold the event virtually, but at the same time enabled us to collaborate with other venues and share experiences.

The importance of environmental data and its availability is crucial, this allows us to make better policies and ensure that the appropriate actions are taken.

The involvement of the government in conjunction with the private sector and civil society allows greater openness to create solutions that benefit everyone.

Porque você ama o Dia dos Dados Abertos?

Because it is a collaborative space that allows us to show the benefits of open data and encourage the adoption of open data policies in government, companies and civil society to solve common problems in our communities.

Você ou seu time produziu algum recurso (conjunto de dados/ferramenta/mapa/código/etc) durante sua celebração do Dia dos Dados Abertos?

An open source web app was created that allowed participants to gather information on trees and native species of the city to be mapped collaboratively. https://arboleo.herokuapp.com

A repository was created on GitHub with the datasets and an interactive code notebook to visualize the data in Python.
