“…In addition to policies, macro OGD frameworks can also facilitate OGD. For example, President Obama's Open Government Directive stipulated that OGD should be supported by three fundamental pillars: transparency, participation and collaboration (Obama, 2009). We believe that organizational readiness, such as regulation and policy systems and top management support, can assist OGD during public health emergencies.…”

Purpose With the worldwide open government data (OGD) movement and frequent public health emergencies in recent years, academic research on OGD for public health emergencies has been growing. However, it is not fully understood how to promote OGD on public health emergencies. Therefore, this paper aims to explore the factors that influence OGD on public health emergencies. Design/methodology/approach The technology–organization–environment framework is applied to explore factors that influence OGD during COVID-19. It is argued that the effects of four key factors – technical capacity, organizational readiness, social attention and top-down pressure – are contingent on the severity of the pandemic. A unique data set was created by combining multiple data sources which include archival government data, a survey of 1,034 Chinese respondents during the COVID-19 outbreak and official COVID-19 reports. Findings The data analysis indicates that the four factors positively affect OGD, and pandemic severity strengthens the effects of technical capacity, organizational readiness and social attention on OGD. Originality/value This study provides theoretical insights regarding how to improve OGD during public health emergencies, which can guide government efforts in sharing data with the public when dealing with outbreak in the future.

“…Moreover, the people who use open data must not be restricted, and the application field of open data must not be specified. In other words, the data provided in open data format must be "platform independent, machine readable, and made available to the public without restrictions that would impede the re-use of that information" [23]. Open data is considered to be a key factor of the open government [24].…”

Development of an Open Government Data (OGD) Evaluation Framework for BIM

Open government data (OGD) provide an opportunity for developing various services by disclosing information monopolized by the government to the public so that the private sector can use it. The private sector is utilizing this to improve the work efficiency and productivity by collecting, analyzing, and reprocessing OGD for various work steps of a BIM-based design project. However, most studies on OGD focus on the functionality and usability of data portals and the factors for evaluating the data itself such as openness, accountability, and transparency. This study aims to provide an evaluation framework for OGD for the AEC industry to assess the data utilization environment in order to improve the productivity of BIM-based projects. Several OGD principles found within related literature are discussed, and from them we extract evaluation framework levels. Then, we validate the proposed framework by applying it to a case of developing a BIM-based design support system using OGD datasets. This research concludes by suggesting that to effectively utilize OGD in the construction industry, the private sector should simply view data after collecting them, create an institutional environment for creating new values by reprocessing data, and build an active data utilization roadmap based on this environment.

“…The current administration has recognized the important role of ICT to opening government, but there is some level of controversy in the way ICT is considered important. Heckmann (2011) suggests ICT-driven approach to Open Government by integrating the notion of Open Government and ICT, whereas Wilson and Linders (2011) cast a caveat against prioritizing a focus on technology by placing heavier emphasis on policy, agency cultures, and institutional readiness.…”

The analysis on the secondary data from the Pew Internet and American Life Project's national survey (Government Online) found what influences American citizens' attitude about Open Government and Government 2.0, which can be identified as a new goal and tool, respectively, of e-government. This study employs a path analysis based on standardized structural equation estimation, which decomposes the causal relationships among multiple variables into standardized direct and indirect effects. The analysis suggests some noteworthy findings. Heavy users of e-government services and those with trust in government are likely to have positive attitudes toward the new phase of e-government, Open Government and Government 2.0. Socio-demographic conditions have indirect effects on citizen attitudes through the mediating effect of e-government use.
