✎ Updated 20 Aug 2026 Publication date recorded for 2 sources. What changed →
Yokohama runs its open-data catalogue on CKAN at data.city.yokohama.lg.jp. Counted through the portal's own search API in August 2026, all 654 datasets carry a Creative Commons Attribution licence and none is left without one — a completeness almost no city in this atlas reaches, and the opposite of portals that publish downloadable files under no licence at all. The catalogue records themselves were created from March 2024, while the documents inside them reach back further.
what does this mean?
The strongest source is the operator's or the city's own reporting — an official report, dataset or press release. It grades who did the looking — not how well the project went. All four grades →📊 Impact
654 of 654 datasets licensed CC BY, with zero unlicensed records, counted directly through the portal's package_search API in August 2026.
🎓 Lesson
Licence coverage is the cheapest thing to verify about an open-data portal and the most often skipped: one API call separates a catalogue that can be reused from one that merely can be downloaded.

Evidence Passport · public beta 3 addressable claims, 2 source dossiers, one permanent baseline. The passport is unreviewed — an AI-assisted structural migration, not a human or expert endorsement. Every revision keeps a permanent copy under revision history.
Inspect the claims, one by one — verbatim text, sources and caveats for all 3
The text below is copied verbatim from the published record. Each claim names the source dossiers that carry it; caveats stay attached to the claim they qualify.

Forensic record — source dossiers, gaps, hashes and the exact revision this page renders
This layer records what is known about each source, what is still missing, and the exact snapshot this page is rendering. A missing date, archive or hash stays visible as missing.
Awaiting operator and domain-expert review; publication of this revision implies neither.

Known limits of this passport
- Publisher names and source languages have not yet been classified; domains are recorded without guessing.
- Existing source notes are descriptive locators, not page- or paragraph-exact citations.
- A missing archive, publication date or content hash is shown as null rather than inferred.
- The project-level evidence grade ranks the strongest source in the entry; it is not a truth score for every claim.
