5. “A Colloquial Definition of Big,
Open, and Personal Data”
Context – B-O-P Data
 Big Data is (i) data that you cannot handle
with conventional tools or (ii) a term used
as a vague metaphor for solving problems
with data.
 Open Data is data that anyone can use;
without legal, technical or financial
barriers.
More formal Open Knowledge Foundation writes: A
piece of data or content is open if anyone is free to
use, reuse, and redistribute it — subject only, at most,
to the requirement to attribute and/or share-alike.
 Personal Data is data derived from
people, where you can distinguish a
person from other people in the group.

More formal: personally identifiable information (PII)
from the ISO 29100 standard (privacy framework).

7. Context – Privacy

“One of the most important ways to
address the privacy issues
associated with big data is to
routinely de-identify health
information prior to its use or
disclosure for research purposes”
