The State of Hawaii’s Open Data portal provides residents, analysts, and civic developers with unparalleled access to State data for use in increasing transparency, driving civic innovation, and engaging participants in a more collaborative form of government. Visitors to the site will find over 150 datasets organized by six major topics, with more datasets continuing to be added to the site:

• Culture and Recreation
• Economic Development
• Employment
• Environmental Protection
• Formal Education
• Government-wide Support

House Bill 1885, signed in June 2022, states that each executive branch department, including the department of education and University of Hawaiʻi, shall use reasonable efforts to make appropriate and existing data sets maintained by the department electronically available to the public through the State’s open data portal.
