“…DKAN Platform because: (1) it is an open data platform that enables data providers like governments to easily share data with the general public with a comprehensive set of cataloging, publishing, and visualization tools [21], and it is suitable to create an independent interconnection between the proposed RA and the roles of the OGDP users [21]. Although DKAN is criticised and has shortcomings, we opted for using DKAN as a starting point as many portals make use of this platform [22].…”

“…The RA can then be used to extend the DKAN platform. The DKAN platform that is used as the basis consist of three main elements [21,23]: (1) DKAN Dataset Content Types, which contains the actual dataset and resource types and fields to develop layer 1 (data collection) and layer 2 (data lake), (2) The DKAN Dataset Representational State Transfer (REST) API and management, which defines the REST interface to integrate and protect data in the ODGP (layer 3), (3) The DKAN Dataset Groups, which combine both dataset analysis and site users including data visualisation (layer 4 and 5).…”

Governments have established Open Government Data Portals (OGDP) to open various types of datasets that can be used to increase transparency, accountability, and innovation. OGDP is becoming a strategic program for citizen engagement and empowering users. Nevertheless, many OGDP architectures focus merely on publishing data and do not support the actual data use. Therefore, this paper aims to develop a reference architecture (RA) that takes a broader set of requirements aimed at enabling the use of open data into account. The RA consists of recommended structures and integrations of the end-to-end user interactions and services. In this research, we use the DKAN open data management platform as the basis to design a full suite of cataloguing and visualising the end-to-end user interactions. Five layers are proposed providing functionalities for using data. Whereas most portals are focused on releasing data, our RA is focused on empowering users by providing functionalities for the use of data.
