Robert, Edward, Listers

Thank you for getting into the opendata website and working through the data
sets. 

Two issues.
1. generally when users request for information on specific data sets, these
requests should be responded to expeditiously. This we will endeavour to
improve.  We would also like to encourage posting of inquiries comments via
twitter @kenyaopendata. 


2. Some data sets that users would like to have are not yet available as
open data. This is an ongoing process as some data owners are still being
brought on board with the idea. The site launched with 100 odd data sets.
Now there are 400 and growing.

We appreciate the feedback.

Robert,

 

I am in a similar predicament. I am interested in Motor Vehicle data, I sent
a request, it was approved, and NOTHING is in there!

 

Best Regards,

Hi,

 

I requested for a data set on the Opendata platform and received an email
confirming that the dataset was now available unfortunately no instructions
where given on how to access it and I have finally given in.

 

Is there anyone out there who is familiar with accessing specific data sets,
any assistance at this stage will definitely reduce my hair loss.

 

Regards
