1 Open data and then what? - A Danish view on gains, pains and other experiences Ulla Kronborg Mazzoli, Chief Advisor Agency for Data supply & Efficiency National INSPIRE Contact Point Vice President Geoforum Danmark

2 He who knows all the answers has not yet been asked all the questions. - Author unknown

3 Outline Open data in DK how and why The geospatial aspect! Gains - the ones we calculated and the ones we experienced Pains the bumpy road from strategy and politics to use and value creation Lessons learnt Perspectives open data and the future

4 10+ years of egovernment development Corporation between central government, regions and municipalities 15+ years of SDI development

5

6 SDI the backbone in efficient egovernment

7 Amongst our chief weaponry Solid NSDI fundament Political momentum We tried it before Legislation INSPIRE!

8 Digital Map Supply since 2002

9 Open data in Denmark ESRI UC 2013

11 Open data in Denmark ESRI UC 2013

12 Political momentum in the EU Enabler = Interoperability Interoperability is a key enabler for the provision of efficient, low cost and secure Public Administrations' e-services at national and EU level

13 We have tried it before.. Address data freely available in 2002 Decision based on a very positive Business Case. Societal gains = DKK 471 million Public Sector saving = DKK 38 million

14

15 INSPIRE pusher

16 NSDI and INSPIRE is good for.. egovernment And we told the Ministry of Finance

17 egovernment strategy Responsible: Ministry of Finance!!

18 The Danish egovernment Strategy Vision: Digitalisation shall create a smarter public sector, which is simpler, more efficient and coherent Action: Cross-cutting themes of reuse of data, infrastructure, citizen services, and governance Focus: Free and open authoritative basic data and a common public data distributor

23 The Data Distributor

24 Common Data Model

25 The Danish government and Local Government Denmark entered into an agreement on basic data Open access to public-sector basic data for everyone Investments of approx. 800 DKK million up to 2016 Positive BC gains in the private sector

26 FREE ACCESS TO BASIC DATA FOR EVERYONE

27 Taking it a bit further The Danish Geodata Agency and the Local Governments expanded basic open data Financed through the yearly budget negotiations

28 No business in charging More than 400 contracts have been terminated and credited

29 Digital Map Supply

35 Observations 2+ years after Increased use of geo data New sectors on the move Many more possibilities for partnerships etc. Efficiency driver The expected growth in the private (geo)sector is not significant yet We have not experienced a stream of new products and services on top of Open Data The reasons are many fold.

36 Company survey 40 % of enterprises do not believe that Open Data has had any effect! Data Quality needs improvement Usable meta data and clear definitions Regulation/legislation Guidelines for use of data and SIMPLIFICATION! Cooperation/collaboration Clear governance rules and roles between public and private More Open Networks and dialogue

37 A look in the mirror Lack of innovation power in the branch Economic crisis still lingers Not enough investments in adequate datacompetences and capacity The expected foreign market opportunities are slow in coming Very different maturity levels

38 we

39 Nothing comes from nothing.

40 Access is not enough you need accessibility Transparency Comprehensibility Usability

41 One size fits all Who will pay for more shapes and sizes?

42 Open data benefits do we have a contradiction? Growth in the private sector Efficiency in the public sector

43 How to balance..? Few formats or many? Do or do not applications? Leave the user to the private sector? Loose your authoritative stamp? Standards and common components? Re-use and share? Open Source?

44 Perspectives

45 Open Data and the world around us Financial crisis - we cannot afford to do the same thing twice Greening the economy no unlimited resources Increasing focus on efficient administration - do the most with the taxpayers money Digitization is hot and location matters (apps and more) Local is global environment, climate, diseases, transport.are trans border and shared Be agile - international trends of yesterday is an everyday thing tomorrow Data driven economy, administration, business DSM

46 There is no way around it The NSDI and egovernment goes OPEN and reusable
