Mercredi 15 mai 2024 (Halifax, Nouvelle-Écosse) – La Municipalité régionale d’Halifax a publié un nouvel ensemble de données sur Données ouvertes, dans le cadre d’un engagement continu à fournir au public un accès aux données créées et gérées par la municipalité. Le nouvel ensemble de données comprend :

L’ajout de cet ensemble de données porte le nombre total des ensembles de données ouvertes à 244.

Les ensembles de données existants suivants ont été modifiés :

Un large éventail de données peut être obtenu gratuitement via le catalogue, telles que les itinéraires et les horaires de transport en commun, les calendriers de collecte des déchets solides et les tarifs régionaux. De nouvelles diffusions de données ont lieu plusieurs fois au cours de l'année, la plus récente ayant eu lieu le 3 avril 2024.  

L'initiative sur les données ouvertes a été lancée au début de 2014 afin d'améliorer la mobilisation des résidents et d'accroître la transparence des données municipales. Le programme a été officialisé par le conseil régional plus tard dans l'année par l'adoption de l'arrêté administratif 2014-006-ADM sur les données ouvertes.
