5 Stars of open data

★
make your stuff available on the Web (whatever format) under an open license
★★
make it available as structured data (e.g., Excel instead of image scan of a table)
★★★
make it available in a non-proprietary open format (e.g., CSV instead of Excel)
★★★★
use URIs to denote things, so that people can point at your stuff
★★★★★
link your data to other data to provide context

Data Ethics - all the way
Data product Life cycle
Funding > Motivation > Project Design > Data Collection & Sourcing >
Analysis > Interpretation > Communication and Distribution

By Heather Krause, February 6, 2019 In Case Studies, Experts

Transparency, Trustworthiness, Safeguards in each step of the data product life cycle

Linked data > the reason that open data exists
Any data exchange ecosystem requires standards - a syntax that provides a way to organize knowledge for subsequent retrieval.
Vocabularies/Ontologies > See W3.org
It explicitly describes the nature of that relationship. By providing context to its connection.
It creates knowledge
