Open-DAI: Opening Data Architectures and Infrastructures of European Public Administrations

... The Open-DAI project deals with the following main issues: the opening of the huge amount of data stored in PA databases to the wide audience of potential users; the evolution toward an open architecture model for the PA information systems in order to overcome the monolithic and closed architecture models (silos); to facilitate software maintenance of existing silos, enabling PA to pace the evolution of legacy systems with Open Data initiatives. The Open-DAI project aims to address the problems outlined above by testing the efficiency and added value of a SOA and Cloud-based architecture on several PA by: • Implementing a data virtualization infrastructure deployed into a high availability infrastructure • Simplifying access to legacy vertical applications data, by providing a virtualized version of the data bases in the Cloud • Providing a new SOA data access layer, that could be combined in an appropriate manner in order to improve the products and services • Implementing the PA “open data” data hub, exposing it by using classic web services as well as other standard protocols. Assessing the business benefits for both PA and private organizations by developing new third-party added value services, focused on the following topics: transport and mobility, localization and geographic information, environment and pollution.

EC launches Open Data Strategy for Europe

News from the blog of Neelie Kroes:

"This opening up can generate tax revenues which far exceed revenue from any fees previously charged for the data.
But the benefits aren’t just economic. They improve the transparency of our democratic and public institutions. They can improve the quality of decision-making within public administrations themselves – through informed, evidence-based policymaking. And they can help those from all sectors of society – like apps that help people with disabilities find wheelchair-accessible buildings.
Today’s legal proposals are in two parts. First, the Commission itself will be practising what we preach, putting our own data on a single portal, free, open, easy to use. And we are pushing the EU’s other institutions and agencies to join us too.
Second, we are proposing changes to the Public Sector Information Directive. Changes which will make accessing public data from any level within the EU:

• Cheaper (with fees, if anything, set at just marginal costs)
• Easy to use, with an automatic right to re-use, no need for complicated authorisations
• Wider in scope – as we include valuable cultural material, from libraries, archives and museums – although for these institutions, it will be under rules which respect their particular commercial vulnerability"

Kenia: open Data

"The goal of Kenyan Open Government Data Portal is to make core government development, demographic, statistical and expenditure data available in a useful digital format for researchers, policymakers, ICT developers and the general public. ... there are over 160 datasets including the complete 2009 census, national budget data, nation and county public expenditure data, information on health care and school facilities."

"Making this data easily accessible is important for 3 key reasons:

1. It's a platform for innovation, that will generate economic and social value: from savings and efficiencies within government, service delivery improvements and citizen feedback systems to new wealth and jobs generated in the private sector.
2. It enables data-driven decision making: parliamentarians, policy makers, civil society organisations and individuals can see progress and make accurate, informed decisions on issues that affect people's lives.
3. It's the foundation for improving transparency and accountability: the data includes detailed, timely information on the operations of government, the results of the work it does and the opportunities that exist for improving the country."

European Commission to adopt Open Data Strategy

"... the European Commission, ... has announced that they will be adopting a new Open Data Strategy from the 29th November. The aims of the strategy are to increase government transparency, and hopefully generate overall economic gains ... there is much more work to be done in standardising rules around issues such as licensing and pricing, as well as promoting better practices across the Union. ... there is much more work to be done in standardising rules around issues such as licensing and pricing, as well as promoting better practices across the Union."
