Open Data Sets / Open Collections
Open data sets and open collections from the heritage sector serve as « raw material » for various types of re-uses. The hackathon is an important occasion to encourage Swiss heritage institutions to open up their data/content for re-use and to gather it in a central location. For an overview of open cultural datasets and collections, have a look at the following pages:
- Swiss Cultural Data
- Open Collections (Switzerland) (no longer curated by the hackathon team)
