28.6.2012: The city government of Zurich, Switzerland, today launched Switzerland's first open government data portal. After the political decision had been taken last week, the site went live at the Swiss national open data conference, which is taking place today in Zurich. The URL of the portal is data.stadt-zuerich.ch
The dataportal was presented by Martin Vollenwyder, of the city government and chairman of the finance department, and Andreas Németh, program manager of eZürich, which is responsible for the technical implementation and maintenance.
The portal at launch contains three data sets, freely re-usable for all purposes, on voting results, air quality, and local maps.

As part of the City of Ottawa's commitment to improving citizen engagement and enhancing transparency and accountability to its residents, the City is joining other government organizations within Canada and around the world by providing public access to its data.
The Open Data Ottawa site is a first step in creating a foundation that encourages digital innovation, improved service delivery, stimulation of economic growth, and a better understanding of our city. Entrepreneurs, academics, policy-makers and community organizations are just a few of the groups that will benefit from the available information.
The Cities of Ottawa, Toronto, Edmonton, and Vancouver are working together to improve the OpenData programs in each of the cities including:
- Sharing technology
- Commissioning an OpenData Framework report
- Making improvements to the Terms of Use common across each of the cities
- Working towards common data standards
NYC Open Data
...
NYC Open Data makes the wealth of public data generated by various New York City agencies and other City organizations available for public use. As part of an initiative to improve the accessibility, transparency, and accountability of City government, this catalog offers access to a repository of government-produced, machine-readable data sets.
Anyone can use these data sets to participate in and improve government by conducting research and analysis or creating applications, thereby gaining a better understanding of the services provided by City agencies and improving the lives of citizens and the way in which government serves them.
Some applications build on-top of that data - courtesy of NYC BigApps 3.0:
- NYFacets: "... Open City Metadata Exchange using open standards - creating a hyperlocal "River of Data" ..."
- Work+: "... People can search for new places to work by telling Work+ about their ideal setup: WiFi? Coffee? Quiet? Work+ will scour nearby Foursquare and NYC WiFi Hotspot locations and and find places that meet their criteria..."
