The focus here is on data discovery, data archiving, open data available in R packages, and packages designed for working with specific types of open data. Much open data is available on the web, and the [WebTechnologies](http://cran.r-project.org/web/views/WebTechnologies.html) TaskView addresses how to obtain and parse web-based data. There is obvious overlap between the two TaskViews, so some packages are described on both.^M\r\n+^M\r\n+Another key issue in a data-focused TaskView is the meaning of \"open\" data. This TaskView covers many types of data that come with varying degrees of usage restrictions from public domain (or CC-0) data that is useable for any purpose to \"freely available\" data that is available at no cost but may have licenses that are not strictly speaking \"open\". Users should investigate the terms of use and licensing of any data referenced here before using it for any particular application.^M\r\n+^M\r\n```"}}
