The survey is designed to gather insights from our community on the type of data/information that is most important to them. Open data is data that can be freely used, reused, and redistributed by anyone. Working in the public sector, the City of Madison believes we gather data in the public trust and that public data should be free to use by anyone so long as we ensure protection of any personally identifiable information. The City has been working to relaunch our open data program with the Sunlight Foundation <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__sunlightfoundation.com_&d=DwMGaQ&c=byefhD2ZumMFFQYPZBagUCDuBiM9Q9twmxaBM0hCgII&r=UvIXnlClB9ZuQiyrYHX721iBKDNmTzc3ZjOQzXwPIa8&m=EOZ6akhiEHcle0gMnQuJ9sh6GYGZLOe4h5sf_jNAh9o&s=P6KmfwAWbAxgoGWNsJ1F2ZKL7ys7g7auVvoT5TX8iHg&e=> through the What Works Cities initiative <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__whatworkscities.bloomberg.org_&d=DwMGaQ&c=byefhD2ZumMFFQYPZBagUCDuBiM9Q9twmxaBM0hCgII&r=UvIXnlClB9ZuQiyrYHX721iBKDNmTzc3ZjOQzXwPIa8&m=EOZ6akhiEHcle0gMnQuJ9sh6GYGZLOe4h5sf_jNAh9o&s=g7-BO0Xp-64xgahyjvf0yvyUOggF529iBAVwq2gp9yg&e=> from Bloomberg Philanthropies.

Our most recent efforts around open data are threefold: 1. Relaunch our portal to an ESRI based platform at www.cityofmadison.com/data 2. Compile a list of publishing plans <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__data-2Dcityofmadison.opendata.arcgis.com_datasets_city-2Dof-2Dmadison-2Ddata-2Dpublishing-2Dplans_data&d=DwMGaQ&c=byefhD2ZumMFFQYPZBagUCDuBiM9Q9twmxaBM0hCgII&r=UvIXnlClB9ZuQiyrYHX721iBKDNmTzc3ZjOQzXwPIa8&m=EOZ6akhiEHcle0gMnQuJ9sh6GYGZLOe4h5sf_jNAh9o&s=KjN5WHQHVjXIMDCJ33INaZIdNLIP4eHZKc6ALlz6L1c&e=> for each City agency that includes their intent to publish data onto the open data portal 3.
