The Value of Open Data
√√
= US$1 billion
What Does Open Data Mean?
1 Primary data
2 Accessible (Portal website, mobile)
3 Machine processable
4 Non discriminatory
5 Free for reuse (commerical / non-commercial)
Open government data =
Non-personal data produced or commissioned by public sector that is made open
6 Open license
Building an Open Data Ecosystem
> 30 counties and 300 governments have open data initiatives ... And counting!
Open Data Around the World
•1st in sub-Saharan Africa• 22nd in the world
• 16th national Open Data portal• 1st in Eastern Europe / CIS
Kenya’s Open Data Portal
QuickTime™ and aBMP decompressor
are needed to see this picture.
Portal anchored with key, high-value datasets -- full Census
Portal launched with apps and APIs available from the beginning
Even before launch, started working closely with local developer community.
Almost 400 datasets by end of 2011.
Over 100 requests for datasets submitted via the portal.
Major investment in Phase 2 of its Open Data Initiative (over US$6 million)
Highlights
Portal anchored with key, high-value data sets: public expenditures database (BOOST) + data bank of National Bureau of Statistics
Sustainable pipeline of agency data sets driven by Open Data Directive
Over 20,000 downloads to date
18 public agencies have uploaded data onto data.gov.md
Recent investments in co-creation & apps development starting to pay off (CheckMySchool)
Highlights
Visible, high-level political support matters. Moldova’s Prime Minister championed Open Data and e-Transformation for over 1 year.
Time invested in socializing open data created real ownership by MD agencies
Don’t waste time fighting resistence; find first mover agencies and move forward with them on open data
Leverage early portal success into whole-of-government Open Data Directive
Need continuous activities to sustain momentum for open data after portal is launched -- contests, hackathons, high-profile release of important datasets
Moldova: Successes & Work in Progress
Promote reuse by targeting most valuable data sets
More data, more data, more data
APIs are needed to make data sets more usable for developers
Building Communities of Interest and Community of Practice around data
Greater investment in reuse & co-creation (“Field of Dreams” does not work)
Top political support from President + a political champion able to navigate the politics and technology to win support across government.
Took advantage of World Bank’s available, rich data on Kenya.
Robust, world-class platform. Kenya uses Socrata for data curation and visualizations.
Launched with APIs and visualizations for key data sets, and heavily encouraged application development even before portal launched.
Kenya: Successes & Work in Progress
Build capacity of data managers to handle acquisition, curation, quality control.
More data from more agencies
Better job showing development benefits of open data to top leadership
Invest in co-creation: connect user communities (academia, non-profits / development workers, private sector, media) with developers and private sector through Hackerthons, competitions, Data Journalism trainings.

Small developer community?
Enables Gov to really partner with local developer community
Few IT professionals within gov? Real ROI from encouraging others to use your data to build services/apps. And they will do it faster, cheaper, more innovatively.
Hard to convince entire gov to open data? Identify first movers ... And move forward with them. Others will catch up (by mandate or pressure).
Little budget resources? Target partnerships with others willing to contribute with code, promotion, even funding.
Take advantage of your “disadvantages”Take advantage of your “disadvantages”
ICT and developer talent pool is outside government
Code4America model and incentives for co-creation
Other countries more advanced in open data
Learn their lessons ... steal their ideas and (open source) code
Other countries have large pool of developers and open data practitioners
Connect and enlist their help. Lots of free help (or help paid by others) is out there.
Take Advantage of Other People’s AdvantagesTake Advantage of Other People’s Advantages
Common Lessons Learned
Government must invest in both data supply and data reuse
Turning data into apps and visualizations like maps is essential to unlock value for people
More data, more data, more data
More capacity building, more awareness raising, more partnerships
Apps that meet agency priorities = more sustainable apps / e-services
Hire dedicated Manager and team responsible for Open Data
Resources ($$) for a multi-year Open Data Program
Early attention to performance metrics (e.g., Open Data dashboards)
