“…To this end the approach in [17] is limited by its lack of information about organizations published in sources such as dbpedia.org and lack of adequate vocabulary for the description of properties. The LOD solution by the government of Greece in [18,19] is another prominent example of LOGD. Moreover, it can be used to search integrated information from various information sources as a large knowledge graph.…”

“…In addition, they failed to assess their approach in extended datasets and by comparison with equivalent web pages in European countries. In [19], the e-GIF ontology was applied to the Greek OGD in order to associate it to external datasets such as DBpedia by first transforming web pages into RDF. They propose a solution that uses the JENA framework, the D2RQ language, and Silk framework to produce LOD from the RDF triples.…”

“…Then, after choosing the potential external datasets, we identify the common classes between datasets and relationship between objects from different datasets. This can be done by using a tool such as SILK [19] to automate the interlinking process between datasets using OWL properties such as owl:sameAs and other properties based on similarity measures for example: <http://www.semanticweb.org/SaudiOGD#Al-Riyadh> <owl:sameAs> <http://www.dbpedia.org/resource/Riyadh_Region> Linking different datasets can lead to the access of more data entities and help retrieve more information that can ultimately result in a bigger knowledge graph from multiple interlinked datasets.…”

Open data initiatives are a crucial aspect of effective e-governance strategy. They embody aspirations towards sociopolitical values of transparency, trust, confidence, and accountability, pertaining to the relationship between a government and its citizens. The importance of such initiatives is especially important for an emerging economy such as Saudi Arabia which is undergoing rapid social changes directed by a contemporary national vision. The effectiveness of open data initiatives depends strongly on (a) the quality of the data available, (b) the soundness of the methodologies and suitability of platforms used to prepare and present the data, and (c) the ability of the data to facilitate the kinds of insights and social-action that are sought from that data to ensure successful e-governance. This paper investigates the feasibility of current Saudi government open data initiatives in this regard. It assesses existing approaches to improve the effectiveness of open government data through transforming it into linked-open data (using the Resource Description Framework [RDF]) by connecting disparate sources of structured data therein. It proposes to improve existing approaches by suggesting a framework for automating the linking sub-process of existing approaches and organizing the data to be queried through SPARQL. Moreover, it evaluates the potential benefit of this proposal by discussing the kinds of policy insights this could generate which would be difficult without it.

“…Open government data is an important component in supporting data innovation, an approach in which companies analyze data to obtain information in respect to their area of activity, stakeholders and competitors, or on the development of new service opportunities (O'RIAIN et al, 2012). Public sector open data connects useful information for citizens and businesses in their dealings with the public sector (GALIOTOU and FRAGKOU, 2013). Open Government data initiatives are based on transparency, participation and collaboration for the strengthening of democracy.…”

Government Open Data (DAG) is free, open and available data by public organizations and can be used in projects or integrated with new products, applications or services. Research in the OGD area has grown substantially in recent years, addressing several different conceptual approaches and dimensions. It is important to understand the concept over time as a way to better conceive researches based on contemporary approaches. Therefore, the present study aims to review and categorize existing researches about OGD, identifying which approaches are being adopted, which are the research strategies used, how the concept evolves and which are the most referenced articles. This study analyzed and categorized researches about OGD through a systematic literature review covering 193 publications presented in the main databases. Papers were analyzed through content analysis, through the steps of reduction, display, conclusion and double blind verification. The researches were classified into seven dimensions and under ten different approaches. Concurrently with the development of OGD global initiatives, new scientific papers tend to direct their focus to issues such as data quality and accountability. Through the results of this research it is possible to identify widely discussed approaches and those that can be further explored, as well as the development of the OGD concept over time and its dimensions.Keywords: Open Data; Open Government Data; Open Data approaches; Open Data dimensions.E&G Economia e Gestão, Belo Horizonte, v. 18, n. 49, Jan./Abr. 2018 5 RESUMOOs Dados Abertos Governamentais (DAG) são dados livres, abertos e disponíveis por organizações públicas e podem ser usados em projetos ou integrados a novos produtos, aplicativos ou serviços. A pesquisa na área de DAG cresceu substancialmente nos últimos anos com diferentes abordagens e dimensões conceituais, tornando importante compreender o conceito ao longo do tempo. Portanto, o presente estudo tem como objetivo analisar e categorizar as pesquisas existentes sobre DAG, identificando quais abordagens estão sendo adotadas, quais são as estratégias de pesquisa utilizadas, como o conceito evolui e quais são os artigos mais referenciados. Este estudo analisou e categorizou pesquisas sobre DAG através de uma revisão sistemática da literatura que abrange 193 publicações apresentadas nas principais bases de dados. Os documentos foram analisados através da análise de conteúdo, com etapas de redução, exibição, conclusão e verificação duplo-cego. As pesquisas foram classificadas em sete dimensões e em dez abordagens diferentes. Paralelamente ao desenvolvimento das iniciativas globais da DAG, novos trabalhos científicos tendem a direcionar seu foco para questões como a qualidade dos dados e a responsabilização. Através dos resultados desta pesquisa, é possível identificar abordagens amplamente discutidas e as que podem ser exploradas, bem como o desenvolvimento do conceito DAG ao longo do tempo e suas dimensões.

“…As discussões sobre dados abertos ocorrem como uma consequência de um fenômeno mais amplo, o chamado movimento aberto (BRAUNSCHWEIG et al, 2012;BRAZILIAN et al, 2012), que é manifestado em suas várias vertentes: acesso aberto, código aberto, software aberto, inovação aberta, modelagem aberta, conhecimento aberto, crowd sourcing, governo aberto, entre outros. A partir da leitura de diversos trabalhos que trazem informações sobre o movimento aberto (BRAZILIAN et al, 2012, O'RIAIN et al, 2012GALIOTOU;FRAGKOU, 2013;PAPADOPOULOS et al, 2013;, é possível caracterizálo pela ampla utilização de recursos tecnológicos como viabilizadores de redes espontâneas de colaboração e divulgação de informações como forma de geração de inovação e empoderamento de seus participantes, marcadamente a sociedade civil organizada.…”
