Crea>ng a Data Ecosystem
1. Gather data – from many places and give it freely to
developers, scientists, and citizens
2. Connect the community – in finding solutions to allow collaboration
through social media, events, and platforms
3. Provide an infrastructure – built on standards and interoperability
4. Encourage technology developers – to create apps, maps, and visualizations of
data that empower people’s choices
5. Gather more data – and connect more people

The Path Ahead
• Bring data up and out of government to the public ★ • Make data accessible and linked ★★★★★ • Create communities to understand and apply data • Connect and collaborate with small businesses,
industry, and academia to drive innovation • Continue to develop OGPL with community
development • Share with others to understand global issues
We need to securely architect our systems for interoperability and openness from conception.
