AI GeneratedNational Open Government API Framework
Descripción
Establish a mandatory open API standard for all government digital services, enabling citizens and developers to build civic tools on top of public data. This reduces proprietary lock-in, accelerates third-party innovation, and creates a foundation for cross-agency interoperability that drives long-term cost savings.
