Open Data can be found in many fields, areas and colours
Open Data can be found in various fields or be illustrated in numerous
ways. This allows people to get acquainted with sets which have never
been explored or for people already familiar with a certain topic, to
see if the set fits their needs. An example of
"did-you-know-this-is-open-data", are the naval (or maritime)
facilities at the coast of Ireland which is visualised in the figure
below. The yellow dots are lighthouses, the purple ones are fishing
ports and the little yellow encircled boats are the ferry ports. The
data of this map can be found here [/data/dataset/ferry-port].

The colour palette below is the city Valencia in Spain. Valencia has a
lot of Open Data available on a local level. The purple and yellow
colour indicate the amount of noise recorded in the city. Other
examples of Open Data the city collects, are the location of parking
spots to charge your electric car and where to find wooded areas. This
colourful map of Valencia can be found here
