What?

Open Data Day is a gathering of tech volunteers in DFW to write applications, liberate data, create visualizations and publish analyses using public municipal data to show support for and encourage the adoption of open data policies across the region. It is a good chance for students and local developers to use public data to produce something useful for their community.
