§ 2-157. Internet data set policy and technical standards.

Latest version.

(a) Within 180 days after this Article takes effect, the County must prepare and publish a technical standards manual for the publishing of a public data set in raw or unprocessed form through a single web portal by an agency to make public data available to the greatest number of users and for the greatest number of applications. The manual:
(1) must use open standards for web publishing and e-government, whenever practicable.
(2) must identify the reason why each technical standard was selected and to which types of data it applies;
(3) may recommend or require that data be published in more than one technical standard; and
(4) must include a plan to adopt or utilize a web application programming interface that permits application programs to request and receive public data sets directly from the web portal.
(b) The County must update the manual as necessary.
(c) The County must consult with appropriate voluntary consensus standards bodies and, when participation is feasible, in the public interest, and is compatible with agency and departmental missions, authorities, and priorities, participate with such bodies in the development of technical and open standards.
