4. ●Doubling food production
for feeding 9 billion
●Knowledge Economy
●Data Intensive Science
●Open Access
●Key words !!
5. Daunting challenges - impressive opportunities:
• The life science revolution is changing our
understanding of the fundamental biology of plants,
animals and people. It is transforming agriculture.
• Information revolution approaches are critically
transforming the retail end of food value chains-
radical transparency.
• Investment opportunities- private and financial
sectors aware of need to mitigate risk and build
resilience into food systems.
6. Why Open Data?
• A world where knowledge creates power
for the many, not the few
• A world where data frees us — to make
informed choices about how we live,
what we buy and who gets our vote
• A world where information and insights
are accessible — and apparent — to
everyone
• This is the world we choose
(Open Knowledge International https://okfn.org/)
7. “… research suggests that seven sectors alone could
generate more than $3 trillion a year in additional value
as a result of open data, which is already giving rise to
hundreds of entrepreneurial businesses and helping
established companies to segment markets …”

"Making these data public will allow people to
make their own assessments of the progress of
our Good Growth Plan. It is also blurring the
traditional roles of business, government and
NGOs by highlighting our collective
responsibility to address acute global
challenges. Above all, the data will be of value
to farmers, enabling them to increase
productivity sustainably and to enhance their
livelihoods."
"Open data has the power to solve our most
challenging sustainability problems. … Agri-
tech businesses have a big role to play in
finding novel solutions to these problems. …
Syngenta is taking a step that puts them at
the forefront of the open data movement in
their sector. We look forward to working with
them to unlock benefits for farmers and
consumers worldwide."

15. THE FAIR PRINCIPLE
resources need to be
Findable
Accessible
Interoperable
Reusable
= FAIR
FAIR principle by Barend Mons, EC, EOSC
16. Bottom Line on Open Data
• Be accessible and curated
• Be available in a machine-
readable format
• Have a licence that permits to
access, use and share it
18. Arguments Against
• “Open data are good only for the big
players”
• “Open data will create more data
monopolies”
• “Research data are only in a specific
context meaningful”
19. Different Players, Different Roles
• Management myopia
• Research culture/incentives
• Awareness/use of standards
• Relevant workflows/tools/skills
• Hosting infrastructure
• Who pays?
• What merits making open?
• Data governance/sovereignty
• Legal/commercial limitations
• Personal privacy
• “Do no harm” principle
Champion open data principles
Establish, monitor & enforce
policies
Respect and address legitimate
concerns
Invest in improved standards,
methods, and tools
Fund implementation through
program / project budgets
Build awareness & capacities
Build evidence of impact

20. GODAN addresses these Issues
through working groups
• i.e. data rights and responsibilities
• i.e. data infrastructure
• i.e. better technical, semantic and
legal interoperability
• i.e data gaps in nutrition
22. Internet usage:
40% of global population
– 2.26 billion
Developing countries:
from 0-30% in 16 years
On linear trend, 100% in
just 22 years. Goal of
UN to have 50% by
2015. Achieved 34%
Philippines ranked above
US in 2015
A game changer?

26. Big Data Everywhere
• Starting with Astrophysics
• Follows molecular genetics
• Observational data and sensors
• Social Data
• Consumer data to follow
• ……….
28. If networked science is to reach its potential,
scientists will have to embrace and reward the open
sharing of all forms of scientific knowledge, not just
traditional journal publication.
Networked science must be open science.’
Michael Nielsen (OKI)

30. Specific Issues with Research Data
• Data gets lost
• Incentives, Responsibilities, Rights
• What aggregation level be public?
• Data is not equipped with metadata
• Data is not published in a machine-
readable format
• Data comes always more from the
field
31. a personal data anecdote

These are the data from my Phd thesis,
I started to look for them
35. Research Data Alliance
• Most important gathering of data
scientists
• Two Plenary sessions a year,
working groups and interest
groups
• GODAN works with the
Agricultural Data IG
40. What is a data journal?
• Same as a ‘regular’ journal, where you
publish your articles
• Data is submitted with 4 page explanation of
what it is.
• Reviewed and ultimately published with
citation and doi.
• Data articles can be cited, once published,
adding to your publication record (and
scientific indexes)
• Data is fully open access, with copyright on
the author

50. We need your help!
We have to be
thousands to make
enough pressure
on opening data!

questions
● Learn from successes (and failures of others)
● Bring your issues to the broader community
● Become a GODAN champion and influence the
community
● Use the GODAN context to find new Grants for

52. New funding possibilities
GODAN action (~2 M BP)
The activities of GODAN Action will focus on three focal
areas:
1) Standards - Enhancing data standards and promoting
best practice in agriculture and nutrition to improve
interoperability.
2) Research - Identifying and improving tools and methods
for evaluation of the impact of open data usage in
initiatives and investments in agriculture and nutrition.
3) Capacity - Building the capacity and diversity of open
data users, leading to more effective use of data in
tackling key agriculture and nutrition challenges.
