Publish data

If you have documents or data you need to publish, there are a few ways to go! Make sure to share your published data when you're done.

• JKAN (for smaller agencies) and CKAN (for larger ones) are two open-source data portals which need to be set up by someone with some technical skills.

• DocumentCloud can be used for publishing PDFs, and has additional tools for recognizing text (OCR) and annotation. You will need to request verification to publish documents.

• Your town or region may have an open data portal (here's Pittsburgh's) which may be interested in publishing the data you have.

• A service like Dropbox can be used to share folders of documents in bulk, with fewer tools for keeping them organized or labeled.
