● reproducible without ambiguities
● parts of larger information or knowledge structures
● can be expressed and stored in digital formats
Data → Information → Knowledge → Wisdom
Definitions (OPEN)

Open Knowledge Foundation
“A piece of content or data is open if anyone is free to use, reuse, and redistribute it — subject only, at most, to the requirement to attribute and share-alike.”

This is a first step http://goo.gl/yNPgD
HOW
a formula for making this possible

1.Leadershipalso / primarily political
2.Crisisex. budget cuts
3.Heroes1. (from government / administration)
people that believe is possible, but also ready to lose
4.(Pressure from citizens)
Spheras of the e-Goverment
Technology Legal aspect
Communication
A possible communication strategy

wish list fo the next year Open Government Data as a Right
More Schemas (Knowledge APIs) – keep it focused, let’s not try to boil the ocean
Open Data as a Platform, Not a Commodity
Massive Interconnection Between Open Data Sites
Open Corporate Data (for and by Corporates)
Standards (e.g. for catalog metadata) for Data Portals and Data Hubs
Open Data for Growth – making clear the the connection
Strong international norms for data inventories
Organizational identifiers – Dunn & Bradstreet should be replaced with open data
MiData – getting personal data out of corporates and government back into the hands of the people whose data it is

Open Linked DataOpen Linked Data
★ make your stuff available on the Web
(whatever format) under an open license
★★ make it available as structured data
(e.g., Excel instead of image scan of a table)
★★★ use non-proprietary formats
(e.g., CSV instead of Excel)
★★★★ use URIs to identify things, so that people
can point at your stuff
★★★★★ link your data to other data to provide context
