URL: http://www.igeo.pt/DadosAbertos/Listagem.aspx Format: WMF, WMS, Shapefile The new iGEO site provides full maps with 1:10000 resolution and clear open data terms. However, this data is free for academic and research purposes, but sold for commercial purposes (e.g. companies). This is made clear in their FAQ (in Portuguese): «A utilização da informação é gratuita para a Administração Pública e Academia, prevendo-se a cobrança de taxas justas para as empresas, com aplicação de descontos caso se tratem de entidades sem fins lucrativos.» |

http://publicacoes.mj.pt/ | n/a | #26 45% | 45% | |
URL: http://publicacoes.mj.pt/ Platform provides a search interface for company information. Search is heavily crippled by CAPTCHA and delays on multiple searches, features that severely limit scraping. The information provided is also limited and does not include address details. It is possible to browse the registry without a search term by selecting other criteria, though to do so would take a very long time. |

IPMA is the entity responsible for weather monitoring. 10-day forecasts are available in the Forecast page, fulfilling all requirements of this category for weather forecasts. However, there is no apparent reference to a comprehensive historical temperature dataset. There are monthly charts/maps available, but not daily data. I've inquired on their website to see if there's anything. The license terms forbid commercial use. |

99 | Government Spending |
|
n/a | n/a | #15 10% | 0% | |
There is no data available on day-to-day spending, i.e. transactional spending. According to IBP's Open Budget Survey the data exists (there is a year end report) but the Open Budget Library holds the 2012 version of the year end report. That's more than 2 fiscal periods ago so we cannot say that the data exists. Although the Portugal government claims that they have reformed management of public accounts: http://www.portugal.gov.pt/pt/os-temas/20150504-reformas-estruturais/fin-pub/pin-pub-1.aspx (there is however no evidence of this being done now). |

Since this date it became a private company and there is no other public portal where the same data is made publicly available. |

Existing data is based on a mid-20th century survey; it has been scanned and the PDF made available on the DGTerritório, but it's useless. Efforts to make a digital survey are ongoing (with some cities covered like Lisbon or Setúbal) but far from complete. |

http://eleicoes.cne.pt/ | Excel, ... | #36 60% | 0% | |
URL: http://eleicoes.cne.pt/ Format: Excel, HTML, PDF The main URL from CNE does not have the most recent elections. Those can be found at the Ministry of Internal Affairs website, which unlike CNE does not provide bulk datasets. There are many bulk datasets missing from the CNE site as well. The results are insufficiently granular, with most featuring only general results at the national level. |
