Introducing Cheltenham Open Data
We've just launched cheltenham-od.uk — a site that turns scattered public datasets about Cheltenham and Gloucestershire into pages people can actually use, refreshed automatically so the numbers stay current.
Have a look, and let us know what data you'd find useful next.

4. Before you book a table, check the food hygiene rating for venues across Cheltenham.

5. Curious what's happening in your parish? Monthly street crime figures for every Cheltenham neighbourhood.

6. Planning an EV trip around Cheltenham? Check live local charging point locations before you head out.

and more improvements to the fuel prices, house prices, planning applications data etc.

We've just launched cheltenham-od.uk — a site that turns scattered public datasets about Cheltenham and Gloucestershire into pages people can actually use, refreshed automatically so the numbers stay current.

About & Info — population and history, schools, listed buildings, post offices, local news, weather
https://cheltenham-od.uk/explore/about-info
Every page states its source and licence rather than presenting the numbers as our own — official sources like ONS, DfT's Bus Open Data Service, HM Land Registry, Ofcom, the Department for Education and Cheltenham Borough Council itself.
It's a small, independently run project with no paywall. Just an attempt to make local open data genuinely useful to the people it's about.
Have a look, and let us know what data you'd find useful next.
