From the City of Boston:
Several months ago, we announced that the City of Boston’s Open Data to Open Knowledge projectwould be moving to a new open data platform. After some extensive work, we’re happy to announce a broader release of a preview (“beta”) version of the website.
This new platform, called Analyze Boston, will be accessible at data.boston.gov. We know there is still much to do with our content and functionality. But, we wanted to release this preview to spark conversation and get feedback before the site is officially released in Spring 2017.

As we work toward a full launch in Spring 2017, we will continue to curate and publish high-quality datasets. During this interim period, the new platform will live alongside the City’s current data portal. We will maintain both sites until Summer 2017 to allow you to familiarize yourself with this new platform. At that time, we’ll take the current data portal offline. So, if you have some time, take a look around and let us know the good, the bad, and even the ugly.
