CLAIMS
Urban areas contribute disproportionally to national
productivity. However, the structural productivity of
cities will at least in part rest upon an efficient supply of
serviced land and reliable infrastructure, including
transport, power, water and sanitation as well as
information & communication technologies.

CLAIMS
1. Smart Cities and Regions are characterized by informed
decisions based on facts by government representatives and
private parties (Citizens, Economy, NGOs)
2. Traditional understanding of city-planning will have to evolve to
meet the challenges of an interconnected world
3. Information Technology enabling the free-flow of Data &
Information will contribute to the smartness of a City
4. Cities are not yet network organized enough to fundamentally
rise decision quality through efficient corporation
5. Cities will have to open significant amounts of data to enable
government with the public to co-create public services of the
21st century.
6. Data and Information has to be interoperable in order to
leverage network effects
19. Wait – Plan – Build – Hope
The traditional approach
20. The new approach
Consulate – Integrate – Co-create – Innovate

OGD in Austria - Evolution
1. Public urge
– Started 2009 by Citizen Democracy Interest groups
– Approaching administration through City of Vienna public funded
research project opendata.at
– Bottom-up initiatives by scraping existing
publicly available data sets
2. Administrative response
– Public discussion started spring 2011 by City of Linz
– Inception of Cooperation OGD Austria summer 2011
– Fall 2011: City of Vienna pioneers first government-driven OGD
portal
– Spring 2012: data.gv.at
– Today: 898 datasets by 20 organisations of every federal level

OGD in Austria - Principles
1. Legal
– Provision: A dataset is an OGD dataset if it released on an official data portal
using CC-BY-license and described by a defined meta data description
– Ongoing: Liability concerns
2. Organisational
– Cooperation OGD Austria steering committee, organized in working groups
with focus-topics (meta data, business needs, content federation)
– No regulatory power, though directly advising public administration
3. Technical
– CKAN repository (minimal adaptions to be released as OS)
– 3-stars according to TBL-taxonomy
– Meta data description heavily influenced by international standards and good
practice
– Linked data: ongoing topic
27. Austrian Federal Law as Open Government Data

Added Value?
1. Would the City have commissioned concurring services?
NO
2. Do the applications create value?
Probably
3. What was the city effort?
Hard to measure (City also received value)
4. Who profits most?
Most likely SMEs (as localized data is just to cumbersome for the big players)
5. Will it pay back?
YES (By stimulating entrepreneurship and local business)

OGD in Austria – Reusable patterns
• Metadata description
– Influenced by DCAT & INSPIRE, fully compatible to DCAT-AP
– Version 2.1 stable since spring 2012
– Coordinated with OGD Germany and Switzerland
• Steering committee Cooperation OGD Austria
– Ad-hoc and informal collaboration of public administration entities
– Sub-working groups including public (academia, business, NGOs);
“Collaboration of the eager and aware”
– ~ 4 meetings a year to approve work by – or assign tasks to – sub
working groups

Combining OGD endeavours: DCAT-AP (Intermission)
• DCAT-AP IS
– A specification, which relies on DCAT
• DCAT-AP CAN
– Describe Metadata fields and supporting infrastructure
(eg. a data portal)
• DCAT-AP will become
– The meta data format of the European Open Data portal
