“DUBLINKED” opens window on €27 billion EU open data market

Dublin’s Local Authorities and NUI Maynooth invite businesses, technologists and researchers to join unique new data network. Across the EU, public sector bodies are estimated to be sitting on a potential treasure trove of data, worth up to €27 billion*. Through a unique initiative launched today between Dublin’s Local Authorities and NUI Maynooth, businesses, technologists, app developers, researchers and entrepreneurs are now invited to join “Dublinked” – a membership network to mine, exploit and utilise public data to generate new revenue streams and address regional challenges.

Dublinked, the new regional data sharing initiative sees previously unreleased public operational data being made available online for others to research or reuse. With the initial data coming from Dublin City Council and Dun Laoghaire Rathdown, South Dublin and Fingal County Councils, it is expected that other public and private organisations in Dublin will link up with Dublinked to share their data and invite research collaborations. The initial release of data consists of over 100 environmental, traffic and planning datasets. Click Here to read more about the Dublinked Launch
