SCOPE
Territory of the Lyon Metropolitan Area, France
TIMELINE
Since 2012
The Lyon Metropolitan Area has established DataGrandLyon, a platform designed to facilitate access to, sharing of, and reuse of data produced by the Metropole, its municipalities, and partners.
Since 2013, the platform has served as a gateway to territorial data and supported the implementation of an open, interoperable, and reusable data policy. It brings together producers, public and private partners, developers, and users around territorial data.
In 2022, the portal migrated to the OneGeo Suite solution, enabling the platform to evolve and enhance its data publishing, cataloging, mapping, and valorization capabilities.
