Open Geo-Data❖ Technical openness!
❖ Non-proprietary data formats, e.g., GML, KML!❖ Standardized portals for circulating data, e.g., WMTS!
❖ Legal openness!❖ Public domain!
❖ cannot hold copyright by laws, e.g., geo data of US Federal !❖ expired copyright, e.g., Taiwan Bao Maps (over 100 years ago)!❖ not subject to copyright, e.g., drawing maps (facts) is no creativity!
❖ Open Access!❖ copyrighted, but use open licenses, e.g., CC, ODbL
Open Geo-Data in Taiwan❖ Grassroots communities are energetic, e.g., OSM Taiwan,
g0v,…!❖ Lack of high-level policies for Open (Geo-) Data
development!❖ Some concepts need to be addressed: !
❖ Data published on the Web != Open Data!❖ Open GIS != Open Geospatial Data!❖ Pay too much attention on economic values of open data
A government is the biggest geo-data owner

How about Taiwan?❖ NGIS 2020 plan!
❖ Add policies of Open Geospatial Data?!
❖ Add action plans of engagement with citizens?!
❖ Open up several geo-data?
