Namur: breathing new life into an existing data sharing initiative

Published on

The team at Namur has been collecting and using geographic information systems (GIS) data for over 30 years. It therefore has considerable expertise in data enhancement, and wanted to extend its approach by giving as many people as possible access to its wider data.

The city of Namur’s objective is to facilitate access to its data for all, enabling employees, residents and local stakeholders to be better informed. Internally, sharing data helps to increase efficiency and make better, data-driven decisions.

The city of Namur has specialized in mapping data for decades, and we very quickly identified the need to equip ourselves with a data experience platform to share our data beyond maps, in formats that are accessible and understandable by non-specialists.
