92 Legislation
URL: http://www.joradp.dz/HAR/Codes.htm


The Algerian Official Gazette publishes the laws here (http://www.joradp.dz/HAR/Codes.htm). They are categorised and divided into separation PDF files accordingly.

Here is an example for one of the documents, http://www.joradp.dz/TRV/APPenal.pdf , you can see a table in the end with amendments and dates.

Note: We couldn't tell when the PDF files with legal articles are updates, though, the most recent issues of gazette are available, which might indicate an up to date laws. (We marked the timely question as unsure)

Here you can see issued gazettes (http://www.joradp.dz/JRN/ZA2015.htm), the latest when we checked was on August 23, 2015. And here you can search (http://www.joradp.dz/SCRIPTS/JOA_Div.dll/RecGet)

The budget can be found in the annex of this document (http://www.dgpp-mf.gov.dz/images/stories/PDF/RPLF/RPLF2015.pdf), previous years' budgets are also available on "INFORMATIONS > Documentation > Publications et Rapports > Rapports"

Reviewer's note: The budge above is only in departmental level and does not show department budget. This does not meet the criteria of this dataset. Therefore - data exist but it is not publicly available.

88 National Map


The National Institute for Cartography and Remote Sensing (http://www.inct.mdn.dz/) sells maps of Algeria. Both topographic and thematic maps. Maps are not available online, as they are being sold.

A list of maps is shown here (http://www.inct.mdn.dz/site%20anglais/web_inct_sim/style/images/cartes1_gene.gif), though most of them are not according to the required scale, there is one "Carte d'Algerie et ses environs" is at 1:200,000.

Here there are topographic maps of scales 1:50,000 and 1:200,000, http://www.inct.mdn.dz/site%20anglais/web_inct_sim/act-ctopographique.php - and here are spatial maps

Not sure how often the maps are updated.

All the data are in a non-Open Data format. Weather forecast is for 4 days and only at a country level - not by city.

A sub domain (buggy one) offers data but not useful one. Link : http://rcc-network.meteo.dz/index.php

In Algeria, the postal codes of province capitals are composed of the province code as in ISO 3166-2:DZ and three zeros, for example: 16000 for Algiers, while the postal codes of other cities, towns, and villages in the province are the provincial code followed by three numerals. [Wikipedia]

The Algerian Post website (http://www.poste.dz/) has a link to search for postal codes "Rechercher Un Code Postal", but it is not working. The link is removed from most of the pages now, though, we found it on this page (http://www.poste.dz/Actualite/actua.php#) which seems to be an older version of the site that was not updated.

The CNRC (Centre National du Registre de Commerce) appears to hold companies data, but it has not been possible to determine what kind, or how detailed it is. It is only possible to bring up a list of company names (either by inputting a keyword, or a space as a blank search) using the online search feature. http://www.cnrc.org.dz/fr/src/recherche.php

The whole database is available under conditions and paying fees, though the cost is not specified, and it is still unknown what data this would constitute. http://www.cnrc.org.dz/fr/services/index3.html

No official information about the frequency of database updates.
