8. Linked (Open) Data
A set of best practices for publishing data on the Web.
Follows 4 simple principles:
a. Use URIs as names (identifiers) for conceptual things.
b. Use HTTP URIs so that users can look up (dereference) those names.
c. When someone looks up a URI, provide useful information, using the
open standards.
d. Include links to other URIs, so that users can discover more things.

22. Functional Urban Areas (FUAs)
• defined by OECD in collaboration with EC/Eurostat
• consider factors beyond the predefined city boundaries to
better reflect the economic geography of where people
live and work
• population
• area
• GDP
• environment (CO2 emissions and air pollution)
• labour market (employment and unemployment growth)
• innovation (patent intensity)
• urban form and territorial organization
27. Adaptive Delineation of FUAs:
CBS Data + Open Boundaries

28. Research question
Investigating the effect of socio-economic and structural
properties of the urban areas on innovative activities, as
stimulated by recent RTD policies in the Netherlands.
30. Mapping RVO Projects to the delineated FUAs

31. Conclusion
SMS platform aims to produce much richer data to be used in
social research – through the integration of heterogeneous
datasets ranging from tabular statistical data to unstructured
data found on the Web...

FP7 project: Research Infrastructure for Science and Innovation (policy) Studies
The ambition: promote a distributed research infrastructure to advance science & innovation studies
• A public good (free access for European Researchers)
build upon publicly available data (the explosion of internet sources, the development of multiple public or private datasets)
As a consumer:
1. look at it, print it, store it locally, share it with other people…
2. process it using your proprietary software, visualise, export to other structured format
3. manipulate data in any way you like, without the need for proprietary software.
4. link to it from any other place, bookmark it, reuse parts of data, reuse existing tools
5. discover more (related) data while consuming the data, risk of broken links, trust, etc.
CBS dataset published by the Statistics Netherlands provides different types of statistical information on dimensions such as labour and income, economy, society and regional aspects of municipalities and regions in the Netherlands.
- RVO dataset providing a list of research and innovation projects that have received subsidies and financial support from the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (Rijksdienst voor Ondernemend Nederland). Projects information includes companies and research institutes that are collaborating in the project, but also the geographical coordinates of the project main applicant.
This policy is oriented at the ’top sectors’ of the economy, which were selected
in a consultation of policy makers, representatives of the research system and
entrepreneurs in the country. After selecting these ’top sectors’, a large part of
public research funding was devoted to this new policy
