TRANSFORMING GOVERNMENT:SYSTEMATIC AND ONTOLOGY-BASED APPROACH TO INTEROPERABLE CROSS-DOMAIN OPEN GOVERNMENT DATA SERVICES
- Share to:
Purpose – Open government data (OGD) has emerged as a radical paradigm shift and endeavor among
government administrations across the world mainly due to its promises of transparency, accountability, publicprivate
collaboration, civic participation, social innovation and data-driven value creation. Complexity, cross-cutting
nature, diversity of data sets, interoperability and quality issues usually hamper unlocking the full potential value of
data. To tackle these challenges, this paper aims to provide a novel solution using a top-down approach.
Design/methodology/approach – In this paper, the authors propose a systematic ontology-based approach
combined with a novel architecture and its corresponding processes enabling organizations to carry out all the steps
in the OGD value chain. In addition, an OGD Platform including a portal (www.iranopendata.ir) and a data
management system (www.ogdms.iranopendata.ir) are developed to showcase the proposed solution.
Findings – The efficiency and the applicability of the solution are evaluated by a real-life use case on energy
consumption of the buildings of the city of Tehran, Iran. Finally, a comparison was made with existing
solutions, and the results show the proposed approach is able to address the existing gaps in the literature.
Originality/value – The results imply that modeling and designing the data model, as well as exploiting
an ontology-based approach are critical pillars to create rich, relevant and well-described OGD data sets.
Moreover, clarity on processes, roles and responsibilities are the key factors influencing the quality of the
published data services. Thus, to the best of the knowledge, this is the first study that exploits and considers
an ontology-based approach in a top-down manner to create OGD data sets.
