Practical Implementation of
Open Government Data
initiatives

Progressive
opening up of
Government
Data
Identify, link and
access disparate
Open Government
Data
Leverage Economies
of scale to provide
LOGD with little
additional costs and
generate innovative
value that was not
seen before
Progress to 5-star
rated open data
ecosystem
Use LOGD as a
revenue generation
stream
Generate value from
shared data through
Linked Open Govt Data
(LOGD)
Identify datasets that
can be shared
beyond the
government
boundaries
Encourage API-driven
innovations by
Private entities
and/or general
public.
Engage a broad
community, including
technical and non-
technical people, in
planning and
executing open data
policies.
Share Government data
with Public (Open data)
Identify cross-agency
datasets required to
perform operations
efficiently
Provision a data
exchange platform to
enable update and
sharing of data
through automation
Encourage and
facilitate consumers'
reporting of usage of
data
Share Data between
Government Agencies
Practical Implementation of
Open Government Data
initiatives

Service Level Agreement (SLA)
• Commitment to maintain data quality at all times
• Commitment to ensure data anonymity
Instills trust
in the
relationship

Closing
Statement
Conclusion
Open data initiatives flounder
without a strong user
community
A fragmented data-sphere is
an opposing force to
innovation
Inertia of Status Quo needs
to be overcome
Agencies must also view the
citizens they serve as valued
customers who expect
engaging and user-friendly
experiences and transactions
online
Governments worldwide are
in the midst of a digital
revolution, and are beginning
to address the challenges and
opportunities of delivering
the services that today’s
public expects
