Re-usable content made available by electronic means: from a single point (portal), that must also be linked from the electronic headquarters, with a catalogue containing the re-usable public information and headed and maintained by the General Directorate for Citizen Services and Publicity (DGACD. Presidential Department), according to the Government Agreement of 31.07.2012 on the promotion of open data by the Generalitat of Catalonia with regards to economic activity.

Legal system of RPSI


According to the Government Agreement of 31.07.2012 on the promotion of open data with regards to economic activity, it lies with the DGACD, as governing body of the process to:

1. Write up an inventory of the public data of the Generalitat and its public sector that is available to be opened up.

2. Write up a calendar of data of the departments to be opened up, giving priority to those that provide more opportunities for entrepreneurs.

3. Collaborate with other administrations to encourage RPSI projects.

4. Write up a guide to open data and RPSI in the Generalitat.

5. Promote mechanisms to detect demand for RPSI data.

6. Manage and maintain the Open data portal of the Generalitat.

7. Organize working sessions to develop new functionalities and applications, collaborating with other bodies, professional associations, chambers of commerce and entities related to RPSI.

RPSI responsibilities Generalitat 1/2


The Generalitat of Catalonia Ministries must:

1. Communicate to the DGACD the data available to be opened up and also the activities carried out in the scope of RPSI.

2. Write up RPSI departmental plans that give details on the documents and public data available to be offered on the Open data portal of the Generalitat.

3. Foresee, at the start of the procedure, that the formats and the availability of the data facilitate the later extraction, processing, opening

and interoperability.

RPSI responsibilities Generalitat 2/2


1. RPSI subject to general conditions: legal notice with terms and conditions established in article 8 of Law 37/2007 (mention of source, non-alteration or distortion of information and specification of date of last update). Including general data as well as documents with intellectual copyright (IC) or industrial copyright.

RPSI with prior application because the documents require this (reasoned cases, documents on paper format and not in digital format...).

2. RPSI subject to specific conditions additional to the general conditions, because the general conditions are not sufficient. E.g. The material that is

published in Creative Commons licenses (CC) or the maps from the Institut

Cartogràfic de Catalunya (ICC).

In the case of the use of CC licenses, the RPSI of works and documents must be made with non-exclusive disclosure of the corresponding IC. When the IC or industrial copyright on documents or works are from third parties, RPSI can only be authorized if the disclosure precept from the holders of the copyright is available.

Modes of RPSI


The Administration permits the re-use of its contents and data without any type of restriction beyond the basic conditions established in article 8 of Law 37/2007 (mention of source, non-alteration or distortion of information and specification of date of last update), and provided that this does not contradict the license or notice that a work may hold and which shall prevail.

Authorization implies non-exclusive disclosure of the intellectual copyright when it applies, in all formats – graphic, sound and image – and in any of the following modes for all publics and without time restrictions.

Legal notice on RPSI at gencat


With RPSI, it is important to take great care with personal data protection; and establish limits.

Likewise, when technical and economic means permit, personal data can be disassociated from a document to make it available for RPSI.

Documents with personal data


Conceptual model in open data– RPSI of the Generalitat of Catalonia


http://dadesobertes.gencat.cat

Open data website Generalitat


As we have seen, the Generalitat of Catalonia follows its own model for open data:

1. Data that is useful for companies and citizens: which generates value for companies, which encourages citizen participation and participation from other public players and finally, data which complements that of other administrations (real or effective interoperability).

2. By opening up all types of data, companies develop their own business applications (computer applications; publications; models of data based on publicity, subscription, certification, transformation...) and also multimedia resources, even though these may be subject to intellectual copyright (e.g. The 200 photos opened up for Sant Jordi in 2011 or the over 400 in 2012).
