The document discusses how rules for sharing data can enable digital urbanism. It argues that current rules for sharing data are inadequate and that defining adequate rules allows three freedoms: the freedom to share data, control its use, and build new uses of data. This enables coexistence by allowing diversity among actors, developments, and technologies. The document points to examples from Estonia and Neuquén, Argentina where defining new rules reengineered applications and processes to openly share data between government bodies. When rules for digital urbanism are established, data, processes, and services can be shared and reused to support open government.

to “Digital Urbanism”

2. From the countryside to the city Ken Orr
The Rural setting (1912) The urban setting (2012)
OWN space (I don’t share) OWN and SHARED spaces
Electricity, gas, water (self-sufficient) Public services for electricity, gas, water (dependent)
Living alone Living with others
I have to get on well with myself I have to get on well with the others
Coexistence
4. But which rules to use …
without affecting individual rights?
5. As citizens, what do we share the most
apart of space?
Physical urbanism(space) Digital urbanism (data)
• Territory → • Accessible DATA
from own sources
• Urbanism • Rules to allow to
regulations → share, audit and
(rules to build) reuse DATA
• Public services → • Digital Public
(water, electricity, gas, security, Services (connectivity,
transport, etc.) authentication, log information,
security, auditory, etc.)
6. Nowadays RULES to share data are inadequate…

7. Very nice theory, but about reality?
1. STOP PILGRIMAGE, STOP USING PHOTOCOPIES!
2. STOP QUEUING, WE WANT COMPLETE AND
EFFICIENT PROCEEDINGS USING INTERNET!
3. I WANT TO DEAL WITH ALL MY PAPERWORK USING

15. What achievements do we reach
when defining adequate rules?
Digital urbanism
Digital urbanism are rules to share DATA:
Allow to REUSE data by means of 3 FREEDOM facilities:
1. Freedom to share my data
2. Freedom to control and audit legal use of my data
3. Freedom to build new uses of my data
Allows COEXISTENCE ALLOWING DIVERSITY:
1. diversity of actors (public and private)
2. diversity of developments (legacy and new ones)
3. diversity of technologies (open and proprietary)
