We’re eager to involve all stakeholders in this project – downtowns, businesses and citizens. To ‘demystify’ open data and mass data collection, we’ve created data-sets with meaning that can be interpreted, digested and visualized by everyday citizens. This data is completely transparent, there is nothing we’re looking to hide. Rather, we’d like to see citizen-led projects transform into business models that bud and flourish as a result of opening these data-sets. Not only does this empower citizens and stimulate the economy, it accelerates New Brunswick’s march into the digital age. Progress, march on.
