Portrait of the dissemination of high-value municipal datasets

Data Québec's municipal partners began work in 2018 in order to determine the datasets most likely to be used by citizens. Building on the work of other Canadian jurisdictions, six criteria have been established to assess the value of data. Based on these criteria, high-value datasets were targeted. It is therefore starting in 2019 that the municipal partners of Data Quebec use this list of high-value datasets to prioritize their open data dissemination work. Also since 2017, [partners have been regularly setting standards] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/fr/normes-etablies/) for data dissemination. Therefore, future work is planned in order to establish new standards for these high-value data. This portrait shows the progress of the dissemination and standardization of these datasets as well as their availability by municipality. High-value criteria: * Target socio-economic and environmental issues * Offer better service delivery * Encourage innovation and sustainable economic growth * Increase government transparency and accountability as well as information flow * Meet strong community demand * Meet strong community demand * Data quality
