This document summarizes the work of Slim Turki and Prune Gautier on open data and data ecosystems since 2012. It discusses their projects on open data quality, how open data is turned into services, and data ecosystem governance. It also outlines recommendations for establishing sustainable data ecosystems, including collaborative governance, stakeholder engagement, technical standards, and economic sustainability. Finally, it notes trends moving from open data provision to ecosystem thinking with high value datasets, the European Data Strategy, and opportunities around health, environment, and urban digital twins data.

3. Open Government Data Principles
Defined in 2007, Sebastopol, California
3
Government data shall be considered open if it is made public in a way that complies with the principles below:
1. Complete
All public data is made available. Public data is data that is not subject to valid privacy, security or privilege limitations.
2. Primary
Data is as collected at the source, with the highest possible level of granularity, not in aggregate or modified forms.
3. Timely
Data is made available as quickly as necessary to preserve the value of the data.
4. Accessible
Data is available to the widest range of users for the widest range of purposes.
5. Machine processable
Data is reasonably structured to allow automated processing.
6. Non-discriminatory
Data is available to anyone, with no requirement of registration.
7. Non-proprietary
Data is available in a format over which no entity has exclusive control.
8. License-free
Data is not subject to any copyright, patent, trademark or trade secret regulation. Reasonable privacy, security and privilege restrictions may be allowed
Compliance must be reviewable.

4. Hurricane Katrina, August 2005
“Lack of information sharing across levels of government and sectors”
“slower and uncoordinated response and insufficient deployment of resources”
“Accessing even basic government data involved a formal public-records request and
often came with restrictive data-sharing agreements”
“Data were not available in their entirety — in a structured, machine-readable, “open”
format — citizens couldn’t download, analyze, or innovate on these data sets”
“Technologists started writing programs to extract data from government
websites.
“Neighborhood residents and legions of volunteers organized field data-collection efforts
to document the condition of storm-damaged buildings.
“This became the first-ever catalog of open data for the U.S. Government”
Open Government Directive issued in 2009, instructed U.S. agencies to
open up their data.
1,836 deaths - Property damage ~$125 billion

6. Why is data made open?
6
Release of open data motivated by:
government transparency (citizen access to government data)
development of services by third parties for benefit for citizens and companies, typically smart city
approach, or
development of new services that stimulate the economy
PM Cameron (UK) “Release of PSI as a way to foster an “army of armchair auditors””
“Open data: an instrument to power services and build businesses” (2013)
7. Open data and Digital Economy: Promises and
hopes
Open data, not simply big data, will be driver for growth, ingenuity
and innovation in the UK economy. (Deloitte Analytics, 2012)
$1.5 Billion: US National Weather Service supporting a private
weather industry per year. (CapGemini 2014)
€32 Billion: Estimated direct impact of open data in 2010 on the
EU27, annual growth rate of 7%. (Vickery 2011)
€140 Billion: Estimated aggregate direct and indirect impact across
EU, (0.7% of GDP /year) (Vickery 2011)
$3 trillion: Estimated annual economic potential across seven
domains. (McKinsey 2013)

8. “The open data delusion”
“Ten years of Open Data have come with plenty of expectations and some
successes”
“A mixture of inaccurate data, licensing issues, incompatible formats, and unclear
update processes, have brought the movement from the early hopes to a state of
disappointment”
From the hype of “Open Data can save lives,” many in the community are now left
wondering whether that potential has been overstated.
Open Data movement, a two-faced phenomenon:
Push for transparency and citizen engagement;
Ability to use data to reimagine public service and policy-making, based on fact and
evidence.
Success was often ill-defined as “number of datasets released”
without a clear discourse around data quality or utility.
Giuseppe Sollazzo 20th May 2016

9. Open data and Digital Economy: Promises and
hopes
Lie to a large extent in the development of new services
Results below the expectations of open data promoters
Mainly a data provision movement
Rare demand driven initiatives but rather an initiative of data
providers, hoping for a possible impact in terms of service creation
Inadequacy between released datasets and created services as well
as between the claims of huge potential service creations and the low
demand from service creators, particularly companies
Most services created are not sustainable and relying on a limited
number of popular datasets.

16. BACK TO THE FUTURE
16
Moving from data provision paradigm to ecosystem thinking
Trends, such as the increased use of AI, assume the existence and the availability of a
large range of diverse and high-quality data. This prerequisite is nevertheless far to be
granted.
