Barriers<br />
Economic: it will cost too much, there are no<br />
resources available or may lose revenue generated by<br />
certa<strong>in</strong> data.<br />
Capacity: challenges when review<strong>in</strong>g, releas<strong>in</strong>g and<br />
ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g open data.<br />
Organisational: requires coord<strong>in</strong>ation across<br />
multiple agencies and the diverse stakeholders<br />
community.<br />
Cultural: Excessive government secrecy, or general<br />
resistance to change.<br />
Copyright © 2013. SB Consult<strong>in</strong>g. All rights reserved<br />
11
Barriers<br />
Legal: Legal or privacy issues.<br />
Expertise: Absence of digital literacy or specific<br />
knowledge on the matters.<br />
Data availability: Data is generally bad quality<br />
or non existent.<br />
Technological: Lack of proper <strong>in</strong>frastructures.<br />
Lack of <strong>in</strong>terest: Not be<strong>in</strong>g considered<br />
necessary.<br />

Barriers, an example:<br />
<strong>Government</strong>’s (excessive) secrecy<br />

you’re do<strong>in</strong>g, they don’t<br />
know what you’re do<strong>in</strong>g<br />

Myths and Misunderstand<strong>in</strong>gs<br />
o We do not own the data, it is held separately by<br />
several different organizations.<br />
o It is technically impossible, the data is too large to be<br />
published and used.<br />
o We know the data is wrong and people will tell us<br />
where it is wrong. That will make people angry.<br />
o People will draw superficial conclusions and construct<br />
league tables from data ignor<strong>in</strong>g the wider picture.<br />
o It might be comb<strong>in</strong>ed with other data to identify<br />
<strong>in</strong>dividuals/sensitive <strong>in</strong>formation.<br />
o It will cost too much to put it <strong>in</strong>to standard format.<br />
Our IT suppliers will charge us a fortune to so.<br />

16
Myths and Misunderstand<strong>in</strong>gs<br />
All these have some truth <strong>in</strong> them<br />
o They rationalise the official fear of the<br />
unknown.<br />
o Data managers need to be helped through.<br />
o Need to build a balanced ecosystem.<br />
o Examples and precedents are your friends.<br />
o For first phase, compromise then scale.<br />
o Release data that matters.<br />

Open <strong>Government</strong> pioneers<br />
How it all began?<br />
Most of the th<strong>in</strong>gs were already <strong>in</strong> place (e.g. political<br />
will<strong>in</strong>gness, IT <strong>in</strong>frastructure, capacity etc.)<br />
Copyright © 2013. SB Consult<strong>in</strong>g. All rights reserved<br />
38
Hypothesis<br />
What if we use the knowledge <strong>in</strong> Western<br />
world Open Data projects <strong>in</strong> LMICs?<br />
o It wouldn’t work out of the box<br />
o Some th<strong>in</strong>gs will be applicable “as is”<br />
o Some will need little or huge changes<br />
o Some new challenges arise (and will need to be<br />
addressed)<br />

Lessons learned?<br />
“Open Data must have a well<br />
balanced ecosystem” – Nigel<br />
Shadbolt, Head of the Web and Internet<br />
Science Group at the University of<br />
Southampton.<br />

57
Lessons learned?<br />
Quick OGD portal vs. susta<strong>in</strong>able<br />
long-term OGD <strong>in</strong>itiative<br />
o OGD Portal should be just a<br />
consequence not an end <strong>in</strong> itself.<br />
o Technical approach vs. OGD<br />
ecosystem (actors and dimensions).<br />
o Start simple but with long term goal<br />
<strong>in</strong> m<strong>in</strong>d.<br />
Copyright © 2013. SB Consult<strong>in</strong>g. All rights reserved<br />
58
Lessons learned?<br />
o The issue with Open<br />
oSeveral times not really Open (have a<br />
look at the licenses)<br />
o The issue with mach<strong>in</strong>e-readable,<br />
standard formats<br />
oPDFs, Excel, etc. (documents not data)<br />
oWeb Architecture ≠ Web as file server.<br />

59
Lessons learned?<br />
o Raw data now… and better data<br />
afterwards (make it work and then make it better)<br />
o Start with the low hang<strong>in</strong>g fruit and improve<br />
over time (make it work an then standardize)<br />
o Do not try to enforce an specific<br />
architecture<br />
o Chances are you could not deploy it.<br />
o Try to adapt to exist<strong>in</strong>g systems and build on<br />
top of them as a start.<br />

IDs Scheme<br />
http://{base}/{type}[/{doma<strong>in</strong>}][/{sector}][/{resource}]<br />
o The ability to identify resources via URIs is one of the<br />
foundations of the Internet.<br />
o If we provide permanent URIs that are self-describ<strong>in</strong>g<br />
and follow established patterns; it will be much easier<br />
to f<strong>in</strong>d the desired <strong>in</strong>formation.<br />
o The usage of these persistent identifiers will also<br />
provide reliable references to the data, a basic<br />
requirement to ensure <strong>in</strong>formation access.<br />

o Use URIs as names for th<strong>in</strong>gs.<br />
o Use HTTP URIs so that people can look up the names.<br />
o When somebody looks up an URI it should provide<br />
useful <strong>in</strong>formation us<strong>in</strong>g standards.<br />
o Provide at least one mach<strong>in</strong>e-readable representation<br />
of the resource identified by the URI.<br />
o Use consistent, extensible & persistent URIs.<br />
o Create URIs that are understandable and mean<strong>in</strong>gful.<br />
o Never expose <strong>in</strong>formation about the technical<br />
implementation of URIs.<br />
o Include l<strong>in</strong>ks to other URIs so that people can discover<br />
more related th<strong>in</strong>gs.<br />

the key challenges (new resources, new l<strong>in</strong>ks between<br />

o Data persistence must be ensured over time if we<br />
expect the stakeholders’ community to re-use it.<br />

10 lessons from Internet pioneers<br />
o 1 - Let everyone play: br<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> additional<br />
resources, attracts advocates, and captures new ideas.<br />
o 2 - Play nice: a common mistake is reduce<br />
participation by sett<strong>in</strong>g high walls to protect from lowquality<br />
contributions, vandalism, etc.<br />
o 3 - Tell what you are do<strong>in</strong>g while you are<br />
do<strong>in</strong>g it: improve understand<strong>in</strong>g and contributions,<br />
avoid overlap and create adjacent value, build trust.<br />

Share (externally)<br />
o 4 - Use multiple communication<br />
channels: do not focus only on the Web.<br />
o 5 - Give it away: governments shouldn’t be<br />
proprietary about what they know and learn.<br />
o 6 - Reach for the edges: need observations<br />
and <strong>in</strong>sights from the edges when we face complicated<br />
problems.<br />
o 7 - Take advantage of all organizations:<br />
OGD is likely to require contributions from an<br />
ecosystem of different participants with vary<strong>in</strong>g<br />
<strong>in</strong>terests and <strong>in</strong>centives.<br />

Share (externally)<br />
o 8 - Design for participation: break<strong>in</strong>g work<br />
<strong>in</strong>to manageable pieces makes it easier to understand<br />
what needs to be done and become <strong>in</strong>volved.<br />
o 9 - Increase network impact: a community<br />
model based <strong>in</strong> a network of nodes that can <strong>in</strong>teract<br />
back and forth will create an exponential growth.<br />
o 10 - Build platforms: help people and<br />
organizations coord<strong>in</strong>ate their activities so they are<br />
jo<strong>in</strong>tly more productive.<br />

Dissem<strong>in</strong>ation and outreach<br />
o <strong>Public</strong> consultation: ask people what data they<br />

o Round tables and network<strong>in</strong>g: share<br />
experiences face to face and set common goals.<br />
o Communities of <strong>in</strong>terest: gather together<br />
people with different motivations and profiles, but<br />
that share <strong>in</strong>terest <strong>in</strong> a given topic.<br />
o Communities of practice: e.g. dissem<strong>in</strong>ation<br />
and engagement, data standards and homogenisation,<br />
data catalogues best practices, etc.<br />

Dissem<strong>in</strong>ation and outreach<br />
o <strong>Public</strong>-private collaboration: explore<br />

o Dissem<strong>in</strong>ation (onl<strong>in</strong>e and offl<strong>in</strong>e): news, blogs,<br />
social networks, press releases, multimedia, etc.<br />
o Education and <strong>in</strong>vestigation: tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g of<br />

F<strong>in</strong>al remarks<br />
Spend some time to analyse the start<strong>in</strong>g<br />
po<strong>in</strong>t, identify champions and collaborate, but…<br />
Get started now! you can start small and<br />
simple, then grow steadily.<br />
Address fears and misunderstand<strong>in</strong>gs from the<br />
very beg<strong>in</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g.<br />
Share and engage data has no value if it is not<br />
be<strong>in</strong>g used, use examples that focus on everybody’s live<br />
improvement and avoid the “cool visualization” effect.<br />

F<strong>in</strong>al remarks<br />
Technology is a small percentage: but<br />
still remember there are 3 fundamental steps<br />
“Identify the data that you<br />
manage, represent that data<br />
