More Info about the Open Data Policy

---------------------------------------------------

In May of 2013, the White House issued an executive order stating that formats

on all US Government websites need be machine-readable (i.e., data are

reasonably structured to allow automated processing).

Open data structures do not discriminate against any person or group of persons

and should be made available to the widest range of users for the widest range

of purposes, often by providing the data in multiple formats for consumption. To

the extent permitted by law, these formats should be non-proprietary, publicly

available, and no restrictions should be placed upon their use.
