About Open Data
About Open Data
Open data is the idea that certain data should be freely available to everyone to use and republish as they wish, without restrictions from copyright, patents or other mechanisms of control.
Manchester has a strong commitment to open data as part of our drive to
become one of the world's leading digital cities. As such we are
engaging with a variety of organisations and partaking in a number of
projects relating to “Open Data” to help us achieve this goal.
Whilst
we have published a range of data sets, which we believe support
transparency and accountability, we welcome any feedback and/or requests
for the release of specific data sets from you our public. Please
email any requests to: opendata@manchester.gov.uk and we will endeavour to publish these.
For further information please visit data.gov.uk
Note:
Use of all Manchester City Council data is subject to those conditions
as outlined in the specific licence attributed to each data set.
