The Department of Finance, Services
and Innovation hosted the Open Data
Launch+Lab session to hear from
leaders about new initiatives, and to
enable participants to again be part of
shaping implementation.
The Minister for Innovation and Better
Regulation, Hon. Victor Dominello MP launched
the 2016 NSW Open Data Policy and Action Plan
and led a series of leadership talks featuring
NSW Chief Scientist and Engineer Prof. Mary
O’Kane and the newly-appointed Open Data
Advocate and NSW Information Commissioner
Elizabeth Tydd.
The day also featured practical ‘speed lab’
sessions to have direct input into progressing key
projects from action plan.
Key points raised by speakers and discussion
groups are summarised in this document.

Opening comments
The Minister’s remarks emphasised the
NSW Government's ongoing commitment to open
data, as reflected in the updated Open Data
Policy, Action Plan and initiatives.
The Minister noted progress in the amount of data
NSW agencies are making available, with around
50,000 datasets now available through the
data.nsw.gov.au central portal.
The policy announces the role of the
NSW Open Data Advocate under the GIPA
Act to further encourage the proactive
public release of government information by
agencies, and to provide information, advice
and assistance to agencies and the NSW
public on access to government information.
The 2016 NSW Open Data Policy has a focus
on guiding development and measuring
progress, particularly through:
• The Open Data Maturity Scorecard: a development guide and measure of open data achievement for agencies and the state
• The Dmarketplace: a single data discovery platform and interface to help companies, citizens and government discover and consume published data
The policy also supports the Minister’s
7 D’s for reform:1. Data: better, faster, more2. Digitisation of information3. Direct service delivery to citizens4. Display and sensemaking of data5. Dissection and analytics6. DNA: embedded into everyday processes7. Dimension of data: 3D and beyond

Professor O’Kane’s remarks highlighted the
journey that NSW has taken with open data from
the enactment of GIPA in 2009 through to the
current Open Data policy and action agenda.
Along with many successes, Prof. O’Kane
identified some of the challenges faced in
achieving more widespread acceptance and
adoption of open data.
Open data successes in NSW include:• New (app & data) and reinvigorated businesses
• data.gov sites and the DAC
• Traffic, school, health, weather, environment and travel apps
• Scientific breakthroughs, such as mapping
Australia’s geothermal resources
• Environmental Data Repository

Challenges addressed in the 2016 NSW
Government Open Data Policy include:• Vision: better, faster, more
• Open data principles: default open; prioritised & usable; timely; authoritative; subject to public input
• Principles supported by Agency responsibilities
• Driven by an Action Plan
For the future: More open data education,
better engagement with the community and a
“With a View to Open” policy approach that:• Helps to tackle wicked problems
• Clarifies who should collect what
• Allows for mandatory and voluntary contributions
• Enables analysis in emergencies
• Facilitates transparency
Keynote talk
Prof. Mary O’Kane AC NSW Chief Scientist and Engineer
These successes have been supported by:• Licencing innovation through Creative Commons
• Technical developments, including big data/data analytics, data fusion and AI, visualisation & graphics developments, increased computing power and now, ubiquitous sensors & the IoT

Following the Minister’s announcement of the new
role of Open Data Advocate, Commissioner Tydd
provided an overview of the integrated relationship
between open government and good governance.
This relationship is underpinned by the ready
availability of technology; the universal access it
provides and the expectation that individuals
should have unlimited access to information and
take an active role in determining service delivery.
In the current environment where more
information is being released and
citizens have access to ever-increasing
information and datasets, Government must
respond and that response must be informed
by good governance.
The Open Data Advocate’s priority outcomes
are to:1. Guide agencies and citizens in promoting the
availability of open access data
2. Contribute to the development of indicators and measures to better recognise the most effective open data practices
3. Promote open data as a cornerstone of Open Government
Keynote talk
Elizabeth TyddNSW Information Commissioner and Open Data Advocate
The open government + good governance
relationship is supported by GIPA and its
pathways to accessing government
information which are both proactive and
reactive, and provide protections for decision-
makers.
The NSW Open Data Policy supports the
release of information, guides information
governance, promotes transparency and
coordinates a whole-of-government
approach to realising the value of information
as a strategic asset.

1. Data request service – available through Data NSW
2. Open Data Innovation Scorecard: develop a maturity roadmap to
guide
3. Sustaining open data- pre-approved categories of
data for release in GIPA
4. dMarketplace: develop a charter of rights for open data users
5. Making links with data
6. Incentivising open data and fostering innovation
7. Connecting data and stories
NSW Open Data priority initiatives
Shaping the action agenda
A ‘speed lab’ session involved participants taking
one hour to brainstorm issues and actions for three
of the priority areas in the Open Data policy:
page 8
What is the purpose
of a charter of rights
for open data users?
Who are the
target audiences for
the charter?
What are examples
of key rights &
responsibilities to
consider?
What is the purpose
of a pre-approved
data release
program?
What categories or
collections of data
could be
candidates for pre-
release?
What
pre-conditions would support a
case for
pre-approval?
What are
the capacity
stages / levels of
agency maturity?
What are examples
of measures and
indicators for
each level?
What are examples
of incentives for
agencies to move
up the maturity
scale?

The discussion about the proposed charter of
rights encompassed the purpose of the charter,
identified example rights to be considered and
proposed five priority issues for further
consideration.
The Charter identifies the rights of all open data
users under the principles in the NSW Open
Data Policy and will treat all users equally
regardless of their sector, discipline or capacity.

Charter of rights for open data users
The purpose of the charter of rights is to:
• Define and articulate universal rights, and
make these rights explicit
• Highlight what information and data is
available
• Guide people on the access and use of
datasets held by NSW Government
• Map user rights against the government’s
open data principles
Priority issues for further consideration:
1. Establish an open data officer role in each
agency who understands the data and can
answer questions (or direct queries to experts)
2. Create a communication mechanism to allow
users to exchange questions and answers
3. Help end users better understand data quality
4. Prioritise machine consumable data and
make it reliably available
5. Make suggested or related datasets easy to
find through collaborative filtering

Lab 2
Pre-approved data release
The discussion about pre-approved data
release considered the purpose as well as
practical issues involved in the proactive
release of data.
The group included an even split of data
producers and consumers, and was advised
on GIPA-related issues by the team from the
NSW IPC.
A clear, unambiguous definition of the term
“pre-approved” is needed to ensure take-up
Priority action: develop Open Data Design
guidelines, for example:
• How to design your data with de-identification
in mind (including standards)
• How to measure and deliver economic and
public value with your data
Key conditions for pre-approval status include:
• Data can be can be easily released without a
lengthy decision process
• Data has been de-identified for sensitive
information
• Economic value and public interest is a priority
Consider a sub-set of users (or institutions) that are
‘licensed’ or pre-qualified to use sensitive data to
accelerate release
Examples of pre-approval candidates include
medical data, grant funding and data about
agency information systems

Underpinning the conversation about
designing elements of the agency maturity
scorecard is a clear need to define what
maturity and, in this context, the purpose of
the scorecard.
The group’s discussion identified some themes
and elements for the scorecard, as well as
examples of progress levels, measures and
incentives.
Themes and elements:
• Linkages to the Open Data Policy principles
• Adopting the UK ODI approach
• Value: internal and external
• “More, faster, better”
• Customer support and engagement
– Helping customers find useful data
– Finding out what data is useful
• Use and re-use within government
Lab 3
Agency maturity scorecard
Progress levels and measures:
• Percentages / proportion of agency data that is open
• Appropriateness + usefulness (via user ratings)
• Currency / last updated vs frequency of data collection
• Time series
• Customer satisfaction
• Cost reductions
• Number of requests for data
• Level of use and re-use
Incentives to progress:
• Mandate linked to gov strategic priorities
• Executive KPIs linked to scorecard
• Cross-gov SWAT team to support agencies and help build capability
• Change management program
• Publicised success stories

A series of elements to inform a purpose
statement for the agency maturity scorecard
have been identified.
The purpose of the scorecard is…
TO:
• Raise awareness, build executive support, normalise open data as BAU
• Bring transparency, accountability
• Measure performance + effectiveness
• Create a framework to measure success
• Be accountable for progress
• Highlight gaps between policy + capacity
BY:
• Establishing goals linked to agency corporate objectives + gov strategic priorities
• Comparing progress on objective scale
• Reporting publicly
• Establishing measures for each open data principle
• Highlighting business + financial benefits/ links
• Linking to annual reporting
• Using a maturity matrix
SO THAT:
• Maturity is defined with a baseline
• Average maturity is understood across agencies for benchmarking
• There is agency + whole-of-gov progress
