WHY OD HARMONISATION?

Open Data

Provide (public) (raw) data in digital standard and open formats for reuse them automatically.

Anyone can use them for free for whatever and whenever

you want (including commercial purposes)

WHY OD HARMONISATION?

The hard reality: BUILDING OPEN DATA SERVICES IS, STILL, A PAIN REASONS/COMMENTS:

#1: “We need more data opened”.

#2: “Open the Data is expensive”.

#3: “The Law don’t enforce me to open data”.

#4: “The open data quality is so low”.

#5: “Governments open data that we don’t want”.

#6: “We need all data, we don’t want only the ‘cooked’ data”.

#7: “We need to homogenize all open data offer”.

#8: “From close data to open data… but in silos”.

#9: “I don’t know what the hell license is applicable”.

#10: “I have a strong distrust towards the government” Source: http://www.caldocasero.es/2013/09/por-que-no-se-reutilizan-los-datos.html
