The document discusses open data initiatives in the Ulyanovsk region of Russia. It summarizes that an open data readiness assessment was conducted for the regional government in collaboration with the World Bank in 2013. This led to the launch of the Ulyanovsk region open data portal, data.ulgov.ru, at an international seminar in April 2013. Since then, over 200 datasets have been released and developers from Ulyanovsk have won awards for apps created using the open data, such as sightseeing guides, bus schedules, and a mobile geoportal. The document identifies factors for success as surveys of stakeholders, establishing model datasets, and oversight.
