Open Data Cities Analysis

Open Data Cities Analysis

This repository provides an interactive and welcoming environment for data enthusiasts to learn and gain valuable experience through working with real-world open data from cities around the world.

We warmly welcome users to explore and analyze open data from cities worldwide, and share their insightful findings with the community by contributing their analyses. Moreover, we strongly support data transparency in cities, encouraging them to make their data available to the public. Our shared goal is to build a thriving community that embraces open data initiatives and collaborative learning.

3. Find a dataset that catches your interest: It's even cooler if there's a public API access instead of dealing with files.
4. Fork the Repository: Click the Fork button on the top right of the repository page.
5. Create a New Branch: On your forked repository, create a new branch using:

git checkout -b new-branch-name

6. Make Your Changes: Edit/add files and make your desired contributions.

• Each city should have its own folder: Create a new folder with the city's name if it doesn't exist, and avoid duplicating it if it already does.
