What is Open Data?


What is Open Data (1/2)

Open Data is as defined by the Open Definition:

“Open data is data that can be freely used, reused and redistributed by anyone - subject only, at most, to the requirement to attribute

and sharealike.”

http://opendefinition.org/


What is Open Data (2/2)

• Availability and Access: the data must be available as a whole and at no more than a reasonable reproduction cost, preferably by downloading over the internet

• Reuse and Redistribution: the data must be provided under terms that permit reuse and redistribution including the intermixing with other datasets.

• Universal Participation: everyone must be able to use, reuse and redistribute - there should be no discrimination against fields of endeavour or against persons or groups.


Why?


Why Open Data

• Transparency

• Participation

• Collaboration

• Economic Opportunities


How?


How to open up data (1/2)

• Keep it simple. Start out small, simple and fast.

• Engage early and engage often. Engage with actual and potential users and reusers of the data as early and as often as you can, be they citizens, businesses or developers.

• Address common fears and misunderstandings. This is especially important for large institutions such as government.


How to open up data (2/2)

• Choose your dataset(s). Choose the dataset(s) you plan to make open.

• Apply an open license. Determine what intellectual property rights exist in the data.

• Make the data available - in bulk and in a useful format.

• Make it discoverable - post on the web and perhaps organize a central catalogue to list your open datasets.

How

• The data are available in the form of dataset, which describe the meaning and format, and the files that contain the resources can be downloaded directly from the web portal

• In addition to complying the open data format, another very important aspect is that their format is machine-readable


Data Reuse

In order to promote the reuse of data on the website are available APIs (Application

Programming Interface) access, that can encourage and facilitate the development of

advanced applications based on the information provided by the Governments
