Sakarya Metropolitan Municipality Launches the “Open Data Portal” Application

Sakarya Metropolitan Municipality has introduced the Open Data Portal to citizens with a management approach based on transparency, participation, and accountability. The portal, where municipal data is shared instantly, free of charge, and in an easily accessible way, prioritizes participation and transparency.

Sakarya Metropolitan Municipality, Open Data Portal

Standing out as one of the top 10 metropolitan municipalities sharing the most data, Sakarya Metropolitan Municipality offers through the Open Data Portal an opportunity for a wide range of people — from citizens to academics, from students to entrepreneurs — to develop data-driven studies and projects.

National Smart City Open Data Platform (ULASAV)

From population statistics to transportation data, from social assistance information to environmental and infrastructure projects, many up-to-date data sets are available through the portal. In this way, city-related data becomes both more transparent and more analyzable.

The system, which operates in integration with the National Smart City Open Data Platform (ULASAV), ensures that Sakarya’s data is aligned with national open data policies. With its open and accessible governance approach, Sakarya sets an example for the more participatory and sustainable city model of the future.
