In September 2009, the City implemented its Open Data web site where over 100 datasets are available for downloading at no cost, subject only to the City's Terms of Use which are included on the site. This process replaces the previous approach which required a formal request form and signing of a license agreement. If you are interested in downloading the data, please visit the Open Data site. The Data Catalogue provides information on each of the available datasets.
If you have any questions, please email the City's Open Data site at opendata@vancouver.ca.
