Lisbon has quietly kept an open-data catalogue running since 2016 — 360+ datasets, real CC0/CC BY licences — while its own strategy plans to fold it into a newer platform.
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.

Lisbon's Lisboa Aberta portal has published municipal datasets since February 2016, growing past 360 by 2023 — parish boundaries, playgrounds, environmental sensor readings, procurement records — each licensed CC0 or CC BY 4.0. It runs separately from the city's PGIL operations dashboard and feeds a university-partnered analytics programme, LxDataLab; a 2023 strategy plans to fold it into a wider 'Lisboa Inteligente' platform.
📊 Impact
360+ datasets published as of May 2023, run by Câmara Municipal de Lisboa's GIS division; each dataset metadata-tagged CC0 or CC BY 4.0.
🎓 Lesson
The city's own 2023-2027 strategy plans to eventually merge this catalogue into the wider 'Lisboa Inteligente' brand that already hosts PGIL — a reminder that today's separate deployment may not stay separate.
