In the past SNCB was not always open to the concept
of Open Data or data sharing
16 / 06 / 2010
“Een student informatica, Yeri Tiete,
had eind 2008 het ingenieuze idee
om een mobiel platform te
ontwikkelen voor treinreizigers met
een iPhone. Deze week kreeg hij het
bericht van NMBS, dat net zelf een
iPhone-applicatie heeft uitgebracht,
onmiddellijk te stoppen met zijn
platform.”
