Comprehensive Lists of Open Government Data Catalogs
The list below is for efforts which attempt to list links to all open government data catalogs - similar to the list above. Most of these list the same information, but are currently not well coordinated. The Civic Commons staff recommends that DataCatalogs.org be treated as the canonical list and we encourage you to make use of that listing and to add new data catalogs there. We will be helping to consolidate existing listings at DataCatalogs.org
