  1. The OECD DELTA Project – making OECD statistical data open trevor fletcher "Efficient Statistical Information System for the State Building" on Sept.23-25, 2013, Ramallah, Palestine

  2. Table of Contents • The OECD Delta Programme • “Open data” • The Open Data Project • Open Data Web Services • Making data “Open Ready” • Linked data • The Open Innovation Community

  3. DELTA Programme – Making OECD data Open, Accessible, Free Accessible FindUnderstandUse Open Machine-readableIndexableRe-Useable Free Available without charge

  4. “Open Data” Definition of ‘Open’ from 2011 OECD PublishingReview : To make OECD data machine-readable, retrievable, indexable and re-usable

  5. The Open Data project - goals • To make OECD data machine-readable, retrievable, indexable and re-usable. • To increase the dissemination and impact of OECD data via open data services for OECD statistical data • To encourage re-use of OECD data and re-use by OECD of external innovation via open innovation process and communities,

  6. The Open Data project - deliverables 1. Open Data Web Services • Set of Web Services to provide machine-to-machine (M2M) access to OECD.Stat data via a number of formats. • An interface to manage user registration and access to the Web Services • Tools for tracking and monitoring type and amount of data usage

  7. The Open Data project - deliverables 2. Data content • All datasets within the OECD.Stat data warehouse with standardised structural format and content necessary for machine-to-machine access.

  8. The Open Data project - deliverables 3. Open Innovation Community • Interface for managing Open Innovation Community content

  9. Open data web services – data access Today: Via downloads from OECD.Stat , SDMX web service Future: Via Web API - other web sites can access data directly for creating custom data visualizations, live combinations with other data sources etc.

  10. Open data web services – Data Formats i) SDMX/JSONJavaScript Object Notation (JSON) text-based open standard designed for human-readable data interchange Widely-used open data format on web sites today. JSON has a number of advantages, including: Simplicity - simple and ‘lightweight’ format with a smaller grammar and can map directly onto the data structures used in today’s programming languages. Interoperability -has the same interoperability potential as XML. Openness - has the same open capabilities as XML Readability- is much easier for human to read than XML. It is easier to write and is easier for machines to read and write.

  11. Open data web services – Data Fotmats ii) Excel/CSV Excel and CSV are already widely used exchange standards so including them as output formats was a fairly obvious decision. iii) Open Data (OData) OData is an open protocol for sharing data

  12. Open data web services – Data Formats iv) Future formats could include Google Data (a REST-inspired technology), Google Dataset Publishing Language (DPSL) or Google KML, a Geospatial file format.

  13. Making OECD Data “Open Ready” Only data in OECD.Stat Data Warehousewillbe accessible via Open Web Services. Data needs to be structured to meet the requirements of the Open Data Web Services (ODWS) for machine-readability and interpretability A self-assessment will be carried out by data managers to gauge the "Open-ready" status of each database

  14. Linked Data 3. Linked Data and the OECD Knowledge and Information Managemen (KIM) project KIM - goal to integrate information and centralise access to all OECD content. Develop semantic enrichment and centralized taxonomy linked data support. Long-term goal - create linked data sources with the Resource Description Framework (RDF) Use existing vocabularies to map data to related subjects to create a “triple-store”. Triple: subject, a predicate and an object - each has a Unique Resource Identifier (URI) to enable linking to related sources. Creating a triple-store from the OECD.Statdata warehouse will be a huge task Investigating the possibilities has only recently started Goal is to conform to the Tim Lee-Berners “5 star” level of open data

  15. The Open Innovation Community Build and maintain the OECD Open Innovation Community (OIC) - a community of users encouraged to develop innovative software for accessing and visualising OECD content via the suite of Open data and document services. Will showcase examples of products developed using the open platform
