SMW facilitating data catalogues
 „Internal“ data monitoring should be
collaborative
 different departments inside one oganisation
 look at data catalogue of others and get inspired
 Data catalogue (withouth the actual data)
should be public
 can be exported from the internal catalogue
 what data is NOT published and why
 e. g. http://ogdcockpit.bonn.de
 SMW is a great tool to facilitate this!
 www.ogdcockpit.eu – public prototype
