How this atlas is made · What “last verified” means · What “source-checked” means
Bandung publishes 2,083 datasets and no licence. Six in ten come from sub-district offices, none is flagged real-time, and the median dataset has been downloaded six times.
what does this mean?
The strongest source is the operator's or the city's own reporting — an official report, dataset or press release. It grades who did the looking — not how well the project went.

The city's open data portal runs on the West Java provincial platform and carries 2,083 public datasets and 921 map layers from 83 city bodies, with Diskominfo acting as the designated 'wali data' (data custodian) under Indonesia's Satu Data framework. It is genuinely maintained: 1,382 of the datasets were last modified in 2025 or 2026. Its shape is unusual, though — 1,285 of the 2,083 datasets, about 62 per cent, are published by the city's sub-district offices, so the catalogue leans heavily towards administrative statistics rather than operational city data, and not one dataset is flagged as real-time. No dataset carries a licence field of any kind; the portal has a 'Ketentuan Penggunaan' page, which could not be retrieved for this entry.
📊 Impact
Across the catalogue the portal's own API reported 40,106 downloads and 638,178 views (retrieved 6 August 2026). The median dataset had been downloaded 6 times; 187 had never been downloaded at all, and 356 had been downloaded once or not at all. The most-downloaded dataset, a list of the city's restaurants and cafés, accounted for 1,387 downloads on its own.
🎓 Lesson
A big catalogue is not the same as a used one. Bandung's portal is well maintained and heavily populated, yet half its datasets have been downloaded six times or fewer, and the single most popular file is a restaurant directory rather than anything about how the city runs. Counting datasets flatters a portal; counting downloads per dataset tells you whether anyone is on the other end.
