[Herb Lainchbury]

Hello Friends,

As part of the upcoming summit we are going to present The Canadian Open Data Recognition Awards.   These awards are to recognize outstanding work of an individual or an organization in the area of open data in Canada.

Three categories have been identified.  They are:

Open Data Innovation Award

To recognize innovation in open data, whether with respect to policy, implementation, or use of open data.

Open Data Community Award

To recognize a significant contribution to strengthening the open data community, whether through outreach, education, commentary or otherwise.

Open Data Social Justice Award

To recognize the use of open data to increase social justice and community wellness.

We are accepting nominations until Midnight Feb 13, 2014 Pacific Time.

Please submit your nominations for the 2014 Canadian Open Data Recognition Awards using this form:

I would encourage folks to submit as many nominations as they see fit.  The form above will place the nominations into a spreadsheet which we will all be able to see during the voting phase.

Thank you!

Herb

That is a great idea. I know that BC is further along than some other areas of the country but this gives others a chance to plan for the future.
