Original Summary
I’m building a small independent project to make Dutch government information easier to actually use. The problem I’m trying to solve is not that government data doesn’t exist. A lot of it does: Kadaster, BAG, RDW, CBS, municipal rules, maps, subsidies, etc. The problem is that if you have a normal question like: “Can I build an extension on this house?” “What subsidies could I get for insulating my home?” “What does buying this property mean for my taxes and permits?” …you often have to know which agencies, registers and rules to look at before you can even start. So I built a prototype that tries to do that part for you: you ask a normal question, it checks relevant official sources and public datasets, and gives you a concrete answer with sources and next steps. It’s called open-overheid.com. A few important caveats: It is an independent project, not an official government service and not affiliated with the Dutch government. The goal is not to replace Kadaster, RDW, CBS, municipalities or other official sources, but to combine the right ones around a specific question. It’s still a prototype , so it can get things wrong. Where something really matters, the underlying official source remains leading. Some government datasets are more complete or up to date than others. I’m trying to make it clear where each answer comes from. Please don’t enter sensitive personal information such as your BSN, DigiD credentials or other confidential data. I’m working on making privacy and source transparency very explicit, including what data is sent to external services and what is not. This is meant to help you understand rules and next steps, not to provide formal legal or administrative advice. I’d genuinely like people here to try to break it. What kind of government-related question do you regularly struggle to get a straight answer to?   submitted by   /u/Cliznitch [link]   [comments]
