The Fukuoka Asian Urban Research Center (URC) has been working on a research project with the theme of “user-friendly city planning” this year. During the course of the research, they focused on “Open Data”, or the idea that certain data should be freely available to everyone to use and republish as they wish, without restrictions from copyright, patents or other mechanisms of control. Join this symposium to discuss the possibilities of Open Data and the future of a user-friendly city. There will be Japanese – English simultaneous interpretation.
