The Canadensys development team participated in the International Open Data Day 2013 organized by QuébecOuvert on February 23, 2013. This event took place in Montréal, Québec to correspond with the International Open Data Day hackathon. We produced a large text file download of all the occurrence data shared by our participating organizations to help make Canadensys data more accessible during this event. The contents of this file are automatically updated whenever a new data set is published or re-published.
