White House Helps Cities, Residents Improve Quality of Life by Opening Data, Offering Digital Services

The White House has partnered with agencies, tech companies and others to launch the "Opportunity Project" https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2016/03/07/fact-sheet-white-house-launches-opportunity-project-utilizing-open-data initiative, complete with an open data site that assists citizens with 12 new apps for jobs, housing and more.

Van Noppen said as work progresses, the White House will reach out to additional cities, companies, nonprofits and the public for support. The U.S. Census Bureau has also released a software development kit on GitHub https://uscensusbureau.github.io/citysdk/examples/arcGisHUD/ for interested developers.
