The DC Office of the Chief Technical Officer cranks out more
than 261 live data feeds -- everything from crime incidents to
trash pick-up delays.
Compare that to New York City, which posts
city agency information within 10 days of their publication, as
PDFs.

To build one, an agency has to record and store data in a way that anticipates public use. Data sharing is no longer an afterthought.
You begin with the notion that you’re going to share information. And you’re going to make it easy for people.
