Measuring open data – Open Data Charter – Medium

"Over the last decade more and more governments have opened up the data that they hold so that it can be used to improve services, spur economic growth and hold officials to account. Several tools have been developed in order to measure how well governments are doing. These tools have a number of objectives including highlighting implementation gaps and providing a way to hold officials to account. Each tool has a different approach, methodology and coverage. However, all of the main open data measurement tools are moving towards using the Open Data Charter principles as the starting point for their analysis. This briefing summarises the main open data measurement tools."
