A city-centric data portal that allows Cities to search and view data and metadata on common indicators that they report on has been recently launched by South African Cities Network (SACN) in partnership with municipalities, Open Cities Lab (OCL), SALGA, StatSA, and other interested partners. Known as ‘The South African Cities Open Data Almanac (SCODA)’, the tool is intended to assist municipalities with their planning, management, monitoring, and reporting needs – and to acquire efficient and effective data systems and processes. The most recent version (version 3) can search and view data and metadata on common indicators that cities report on.
