The Israeli government publishes a vast amount of open data on data.gov.il, but accessing it is far from straightforward. The API is not always well-documented, data structures vary between ministries, and some information is only available in Hebrew. Developers who want to build applications based on government data waste hours figuring out the structure and crafting the right queries.
