... they want to learn from other data
08:11:29 [StevenPemberton]
... but are not sharing their own
08:11:40 [StevenPemberton]
... why not?
08:11:47 [StevenPemberton]
... - confidential data
08:12:07 [StevenPemberton]
... - easy to identify individuals from genome data
08:12:16 [BartvanLeeuwen]
BartvanLeeuwen has joined #odw
08:12:17 [StevenPemberton]

s/ystem/system/
08:22:45 [BartvanLeeuwen]
its seems very hard to stop this
08:22:46 [BartvanLeeuwen]
but its because project deliverables state information dissemination , not how
08:22:46 [BartvanLeeuwen]
We need to break silos and link information to help them do it differently
08:22:47 [BartvanLeeuwen]
Can we support the linking of information with and automated system
08:22:47 [BartvanLeeuwen]
we have to !
08:22:52 [StevenPemberton]
... and use linked open data
08:23:16 [StevenPemberton]
... we supply thesauri
08:23:30 [StevenPemberton]
... our system helps tag unstructured documents
08:23:53 [StevenPemberton]
... a file is sent, in whatever format, we analyse it, extract common terms
08:24:05 [StevenPemberton]
... based on thesaurus and vocab
08:24:16 [StevenPemberton]
... and deliver lots of metadata
08:24:25 [StevenPemberton]
... with definitions etc.
08:24:44 [StevenPemberton]
... and we can store the location of the document with tags (if the user wants)
08:25:05 [StevenPemberton]
... [gives an example]
08:25:42 [StevenPemberton]
... please look at http://api.reegle.info
08:25:57 [StevenPemberton]

introducing schema.org
08:28:38 [BartvanLeeuwen]
search engines decided to collaborate, even though they are competitors
08:29:39 [BartvanLeeuwen]
putting triples on the web was only done by a limited number of people
08:30:00 [BartvanLeeuwen]
schema.org is not SEO, its semantic technology gone mainstream
08:30:44 [BartvanLeeuwen]
schema.org is html with markup, to generate triples
08:31:12 [BartvanLeeuwen]
creates rich snippets for enhanced search results
08:31:31 [BartvanLeeuwen]
allows custom search engine
08:32:22 [BartvanLeeuwen]
working on integration and discovery of datasets
08:32:45 [BartvanLeeuwen]
we are driven by being able to answer questions, thats why datasets are interesting

vocabulary is not designed by the schema.org people, its community driven
08:35:06 [BartvanLeeuwen]
the team only integrates community efforts
08:35:40 [BartvanLeeuwen]
this community is driven by w3c community group
08:36:05 [albertm]
albertm has joined #odw
08:36:08 [BartvanLeeuwen]
dataset are added based on work by a.o. W3C GLD
08:37:13 [BartvanLeeuwen]
where do graphs stop and tables start ?
08:37:49 [BartvanLeeuwen]
schema.org is about finding dataset not making all data rdf
08:38:19 [PhilA]
If I get a chance I'll talk about what we're doing at W3C on vocabs - the schema.org management model is instructive
08:38:25 [BartvanLeeuwen]

3 methods for harvesting meta data: SRU, OAI and HTTP
08:43:02 [BartvanLeeuwen]
SRU and OAI are free services after registration to keep customers up to date
08:43:25 [BartvanLeeuwen]
HTTP is free, no registration or tracking
08:43:42 [BartvanLeeuwen]
formats, RDF, CSV and MARC
08:43:49 [BartvanLeeuwen]
MARC is a custom library format
08:44:16 [StevenPemberton]
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MARC_standards
08:44:52 [BartvanLeeuwen]
by end of this Quarter also as PDF ( nice PDF )
08:45:17 [BartvanLeeuwen]
Authority data is available under CC0 and metadata as well
08:45:56 [BartvanLeeuwen]
metadata about books is mostly CC0, RDF / CSV always CC0
08:46:32 [BartvanLeeuwen]
MARC data of last 2 years is available under a fee older under CC0
08:46:48 [BartvanLeeuwen]
process of transition
08:47:05 [BartvanLeeuwen]
discussion about lost of revenue and spillover
08:47:50 [BartvanLeeuwen]
scared of people running away with our data and earning lots of money with it.
08:48:04 [BartvanLeeuwen]
no know examples of this actually happening
08:48:32 [BartvanLeeuwen]
lessons learned: Finding right licenses can be tricky
08:48:49 [BartvanLeeuwen]
CC-by license was to complicated
08:49:22 [BartvanLeeuwen]
make it easy for people to use your data !
08:49:29 [BartvanLeeuwen]
we ended up with CC0
08:49:58 [BartvanLeeuwen]

in 2011 all trains stopped 10 seconds before earthquake wave reached main land
08:54:52 [BartvanLeeuwen]
October 2010 a Open gov Lab was started with various items
08:55:07 [BartvanLeeuwen]
before 2012 open gov strategy
08:55:28 [BartvanLeeuwen]
lot of data put out had low quality
08:55:40 [BartvanLeeuwen]
Earthquake of 2011 was a turning point
08:55:54 [BartvanLeeuwen]
demand for data:
08:55:57 [BartvanLeeuwen]

Fiona: Money is not a issue, not technology , standardization is the current issue
09:10:06 [BartvanLeeuwen]
Questions from room
09:10:33 [BartvanLeeuwen]
ivan, remark: we should generalize a bit not just government but also science data
09:11:02 [BartvanLeeuwen]
they produce data we should be able to access that as well.
09:12:09 [BartvanLeeuwen]
Dave Lewis: remark, focus on LOD in countries where main language is english, there is multilingual Comm group [ please insert uri ]
09:13:03 [daveL]

09:13:50 [BartvanLeeuwen]
Hans Overbeek: questions about standards, what is the best advice? should we use schema.org or DCAT profile for integrating datasets
09:13:59 [PhilA]
DCAT Application profile work through EC's ISA Programme. Details at http://joinup.ec.europa.eu/asset/dcat_application_profile/description
09:14:27 [BartvanLeeuwen]
danbri: Schema .org is a agile approach, which could spin of into a standardization body

09:18:57 [ldodds]
... NXP is semiconductor company in netherlands, lots of large customers and large portfolio of products
09:19:14 [ldodds]
... Content is the product, Product data is part of the content => data is the product
09:19:29 [ldodds]
... Why make data Open?
09:19:53 [ldodds]
... In bad old days, very doc centred information, lots of content silos, content reuse was copy and paste or (worse) re-keying
09:20:07 [ldodds]
... Consequences: inconsistency, cost, errors, complex to manage
09:20:35 [ldodds]
... Consequences (for customers): confusing, inconsistent, manual effort to gather/re-use information, difficult to find new products
09:20:50 [ldodds]
... Vision: unified content strategy. Create once, approve once, re-use many times
09:21:04 [ldodds]
... ISO 13584 -- data model for describing products
09:21:14 [ldodds]
... DITA -- for natural language content

09:23:43 [ldodds]
... want Web of Data to help collaboration
09:23:58 [ldodds]
... http://data.nxp.com and http://qa.data.nxp.com
09:24:19 [ldodds]
... that is a work in progress
09:24:38 [ldodds]
... give us feedback on what is there
09:24:46 [ldodds]
... Open Data challenges
09:24:55 [ldodds]
... how do we convince others to use (linked) open data?
09:25:10 [ldodds]
... how do we justify business case (ROI) -- argue that its simpler
09:25:26 [ldodds]
... what formats should we use? (rate of adoption of RDF/Linked Data)
09:25:39 [ldodds]
... How do we ensure quality, security, enable access
09:25:51 [ldodds]
... How do we combine semi- and unstructed content in publications?
09:25:56 [ldodds]
... Are we giving away a key asset?
09:26:07 [ldodds]
... How do we standardise in industry?

09:32:07 [ldodds]
... at Tesco we are on journey towards exposing this data, to allow app providers to access it
09:32:16 [ldodds]
... would be great to link to open data sources
09:32:26 [ldodds]
... really key area is how we share data with trading partners
09:32:41 [ldodds]
... important for brands to share product information, esp. accurate data
09:33:01 [ldodds]

09:36:23 [ldodds]
GS1 is a standards body, assigns GTINs
09:36:53 [ldodds]
Mark: GS1 is global stds org; 1m companies working on standards, e.g. for barcodes, logistics, rfid, etc
09:37:11 [ldodds]
... new initiative started in Feb, GS1 digital: putting identification into the web
09:37:49 [ldodds]
... B2C example: map human-readable keywords ("milk") to Product category identifier (GPC), search has user constraints (price, distance, urgency)
09:38:08 [ldodds]
... contextual filters for product category, e.g. organic, skimmed milk
09:38:37 [ldodds]
... refine search to find products and services that match needs, e.g local store offering the product
09:38:53 [ldodds]
... Achieve this using data linkages
09:39:17 [ldodds]
... start with keyword which is mapped to category; category has attributes/criteria
09:39:54 [ldodds]
... imagine using contextual searching across all suppliers across the web, not just facet search within single website
09:40:04 [ldodds]
... Schema.org and Good Relations are key vocabularies
09:40:26 [ldodds]
... + GS1 : Global Product Classification (GPC)
09:40:45 [ldodds]
... easy for them to open that, already available as XML, in process of creating multi-lingual RDF

Product Open Data
09:43:18 [ldodds]
Slides: http://www.w3.org/2013/04/odw/POD-2013.04.22_01.pdf
09:43:46 [ldodds]
Philippe: Product data is critical for open data movement
09:44:10 [ldodds]
... everything around us is a product, has one GTIN code which is unique identifier
09:44:27 [ldodds]
... products used by everybody, every day
09:44:39 [ldodds]
... lots of contextual information, e.g. product packaging, nutrietion
09:44:58 [ldodds]
... products are fundamental for trade, economics
09:45:15 [ldodds]
... objective is to create big repository of data about products, based on barcode
09:45:31 [ldodds]
... include ecological impacts, sources, support responsible consumers
09:46:02 [ldodds]
... lots of apps to support product barcode scanning, then can use that to access data
09:46:12 [ldodds]
... BUT: currently no public database containing this database
09:46:54 [ldodds]
... manufacturers have all this information in databases to support printing, but don't share it
09:47:04 [ldodds]
... largely question of access
09:47:30 [ldodds]
... give us what is already printed on the packaging, using GTIN as a key
09:48:11 [ldodds]
... need to have a product schema for manufacturers to support their publishing
09:48:39 [ldodds]
... asking manufacturers for nutritional data
09:48:53 [ldodds]
... working in France, hoping to get traction in other countries
09:49:19 [ldodds]
... incredible possibilities of using this product data
09:49:48 [ldodds]
... GTIN is a new communication channel. More easily support product annotation, product mapping, etc
09:50:23 [ldodds]
... apps can support product reviews, consumer recommendations/decision support
09:50:39 [ldodds]
... only thing stopping us is an open catalog of the data
09:50:56 [ldodds]
... imagine a "google maps for products"
09:52:01 [ldodds]
Example of consumer buying decisions based on using a third-party app that uses ecological data
09:52:31 [ldodds]
Now moving to discussion with all speakers

09:56:37 [ldodds]
Jim King (Adobe): isn't there a large product db of RFID data?
09:56:58 [ldodds]
Mark: not quite the same thing, that is likely EPC data, movement of stock through supply chain
09:57:04 [ldodds]
... we're discussing the product master data
09:57:19 [ldodds]
... opening EPC data is more commercially sensitive
09:57:41 [ldodds]
TomHeath: this is great session, what are the concrete steps towards openly licensed data?
09:58:06 [ldodds]
Mark: different kinds of product data; product categories/values can be openly licensed, largely format shift
09:58:22 [ldodds]
...data from manufacturers, requires discussions with them, v. early stage
09:58:34 [ldodds]
... they need confidence in benefits for themselves and others and licensing discussions
09:58:40 [ldodds]
... lots of good will, enthusiasm
09:58:59 [ldodds]
Richard: Tesco are translating desire to action by working with GS1 and brands
09:59:11 [ldodds]

ZachBeauvais: heard lots of positive noises, but what are the business cases on building on available open data? Any concrete examples?
10:00:15 [ldodds]
Richard: one bus. case is legislative changes and ensuring that products are accurately described
10:00:28 [ldodds]
... opportunities within our enterprise, we have silos
10:00:40 [ldodds]
... really only just starting to understand wider bus. case
10:00:56 [ldodds]
Martin ? (IBM): are competitors trying to catch up?
10:01:18 [ldodds]
Richard: plenty of retailers working in this space, but not co-ordination yet
10:01:47 [ldodds]
John: companies are already scraping and reselling data outside of our control
10:01:58 [ldodds]
... if we can clearly license it, then can make it easier
10:02:06 [ldodds]
Closing statements
10:02:39 [ldodds]
Philippe: originally saw GS1 as "enemy", but can now see they're embracing open data

10:03:38 [ldodds]
... I'm following GS1 stds work, give me feedback
10:03:57 [ldodds]
Mark: huge opportunity to make a difference, make world better place
10:04:15 [ldodds]
John: in B2B industry, focus needs to be on streamlining business integration
10:04:23 [ldodds]
Richard: keep focus on benefits for customer
10:04:37 [ldodds]
Andy: echo that, need to look at customer needs.

10:31:57 [PhilA]
paper http://www.w3.org/2013/04/odw/odw13_submission_14.pdf
10:32:29 [PhilA]
Hans: Talking about Designing URI Sets for Public Sector, ISA programme study on URI Persistence etc
10:32:48 [PhilA]
Hans: Why do we need a URI strategy - it's about trust, provenance
10:32:57 [PhilA]
... hard to do in the LOD Cloud
10:33:18 [PhilA]
Hans: We want our URIs to be recognisable and trustworthy
10:34:17 [PhilA]
Hans: We have kept registers - buildings, railways etc. for hundreds of years, mostly to define identifiers
10:34:23 [PhilA]
... joint points for linked data
10:35:13 [PhilA]
Hans: we develop a model and a vocabulary for it
10:35:22 [PhilA]
... a register is a list of things that you want to reference
10:35:58 [PhilA]
Hans: then there's all the sensor data etc. What we think of as the big data
10:36:38 [PhilA]
... re-use of things like reference objects is what we want to re-use when we write our URI strategy
10:37:02 [PhilA]
... we struggled a little as we have to mint URIs, but we have a lot of identifiers that we can re-use
10:37:08 [PhilA]
... but we don't have a register for everything
10:37:20 [PhilA]
... there was no register for all our municialites
10:37:33 [PhilA]
... so we had to mint URIs for them... which means making a register
10:37:41 [PhilA]
... you can only have URIs if you have a register
10:37:53 [PhilA]
... No iregister? No identifier
10:38:02 [PhilA]
... so we were convinced that we needed a URI strategy
10:38:32 [PhilA]
... the pattern that we used was, not surprisingly the one developed in the UK/backed by ISA
10:39:23 [PhilA]
Hans: The domain should identify the regsiter in a persistent way, {register}.data.gov.nl
10:39:30 [gaztop79]
gaztop79 has joined #odw
10:40:24 [PhilA]
Hans: The UK pattern has a {sector} in the pattern which sounds nice but its' hard to find someone to govern the sectors. Some will overlap etc.

questions from the audience
11:37:20 [CaptSolo]
Hadley: back to geocities era - we made lists
11:37:32 [CaptSolo]
... feel we are doing that now = making data catalogs, lists of resources
11:37:56 [CaptSolo]
... what we need to do to make it worthwhile to index the metadata by search engines
11:38:03 [st]

11:38:07 [CaptSolo]
... so average person can participate
11:38:10 [CaptSolo]
(applause)
11:38:24 [CaptSolo]
Chris: that's schema.org RDFa stuff
11:38:34 [CaptSolo]
... build it into catalogs, so data gets crawled
11:38:52 [CaptSolo]
... not just list datasets, also make metadata schemas more practical for people
11:39:04 [CaptSolo]
... want to type in my ZIP-code and find what's relevant to me
11:39:22 [CaptSolo]
rjw: we (non-search-engines) we need to talk their (search engine) language
11:39:45 [CaptSolo]
... need to put up resources in front of people
11:39:59 [CaptSolo]
Steven: i marked my homepage w RDFa

danbri: getting more vistors? :)
11:40:39 [CaptSolo]
Bob Schloss (IBM): by analogy to SEO - let's implement
11:41:00 [CaptSolo]
... fabulous implementation -- go to cloud's website, enter a URL from where the dataset can be fetched
11:41:15 [CaptSolo]
... they 'd "suck in" the dataset and give it buck w enriched metadata
11:41:22 [CaptSolo]
s/buck/back/
11:41:37 [CaptSolo]
... let's externalize it. if nobody starts, we won't have it
11:41:53 [CaptSolo]
Chris: we are doing cataloging well
11:42:01 [CaptSolo]
... re dscovery by search engines
11:42:13 [CaptSolo]
... data by itself not so useful to everyday people
11:42:22 [CaptSolo]
... people need to *use* those datasets
11:42:33 [CaptSolo]
... we need to allow the data to be more useful
11:43:11 [CaptSolo]
Bernadette: as someone who has spent years on vocabs for linked data
11:43:21 [CaptSolo]
... need communication, mentoring
11:43:31 [CaptSolo]

11:43:46 [CaptSolo]
... to those who make decisions
11:44:02 [CaptSolo]

11:44:20 [CaptSolo]
... there's so many standards, implementations. can be overwhelming
11:45:02 [CaptSolo]
(miss this one re google glass, RDFa, ...)
11:45:20 [CaptSolo]
Martin, CTIC: Spanish experience re economy, corruption
11:45:39 [CaptSolo]

rjw: you're only people in the domain who know the benefits -- demonstrate them to everyone !
11:48:38 [CaptSolo]
Madi: middle place b/w where data is release and ppl access it. data-driven businesses
11:48:55 [CaptSolo]

... many as tired of SemWeb cause they don't see the benefits
11:49:14 [CaptSolo]
... schema.org,RDFa, simple tools
11:49:26 [CaptSolo]
Elie: need more metadata for search engings, end-users

... particular interest in real-time open data
13:01:14 [JeniT]
question: what tools did you use to generate network analysis graphs?
13:01:28 [JeniT]
Michalis: visualisations were done by Gephi, processed by R & other mathematical tools
13:01:48 [bschloss]
Coupling a data exploration, visualization, story assembly website such as IBM's Many Eyes 2.0 on top of LOD seems like something worth pursuing. See http://www-958.ibm.com/software/analytics/labs/manyeyes/#home
13:01:48 [JeniT]
... all done with open source tools

Deirdre from DERI
13:14:00 [JeniT]
Deirdre: relationship between open data & public policy
13:14:17 [JeniT]
... can be used to influence public policy & services, to lobby, influence policy makers
13:14:29 [JeniT]
... eg use statistics to guide new schools
13:14:40 [JeniT]
... also used to justify policy decisions
13:14:47 [JeniT]
... and to evaluate policies
13:15:17 [JeniT]
... eg environmental measurements to see whether regulations have had an effect
13:15:28 [JeniT]
... still a lot of research to do about how this all works
13:15:43 [JeniT]
... what about combining open data with social media data?
13:16:06 [JeniT]
... could give evidence-based policy evaluation
13:16:27 [JeniT]
... social media data is already being used for business intelligence, trend analysis, opinions on brand etc
13:16:34 [JeniT]
... lots of activity from industry
13:16:50 [JeniT]
... government is coming around to this, but using them in limited ways
13:17:11 [JeniT]
... social media used for dissemination & limited engagement, but not to full potential
13:17:12 [bhyland]
bhyland has joined #odw
13:17:17 [JeniT]
... not being used to get information from social media
13:17:28 [JeniT]
... government is only a publisher, not a consumer of social media
13:18:09 [JeniT]
... government should be harnessing information from social media
13:18:16 [JeniT]
... proposed to do this using linked data
13:18:36 [JeniT]
... extract data from social media, express as linked data, analysis on it
13:18:43 [JeniT]
... challenges:
13:18:58 [JeniT]
... wide variety of sources, each with its own API
13:19:03 [JeniT]
... wide variety of formats
13:19:05 [JeniT]
... privacy concerns
13:19:14 [JeniT]
... can be noisy, difficult to process
13:19:38 [JeniT]

Topic: Panel discussion
13:23:47 [JeniT]
Christian: run a small web design company in London
13:24:06 [JeniT]
... running tool to monitor corruption
13:24:38 [JeniT]
Uldis: if you had one lesson learnt, what would it be?
13:24:53 [JeniT]
Christian: we've had a lack of collaboration, despite open source tools
13:25:16 [JeniT]
Deirdre: use of social media data is limited by the restrictions that they place on it
13:25:52 [JeniT]
Michalis: big lesson is that critical mass for open data is lower than the web itself
13:26:01 [JeniT]
... you build on the existing web
13:26:19 [JeniT]
... make an application work, and everything else will fall into place
13:26:36 [JeniT]
Takumi: engage with local community and local government
13:26:49 [JeniT]
... local community has a diversity of needs
13:27:02 [JeniT]
... need cross-relationships to tackle the real problems
13:27:54 [JeniT]
Bart: for Deirdre: did you investigate engaging with the public rather than just reading twitter? asking specific questions rather than just listening?
13:28:16 [JeniT]
Deridre: that's something we are looking at
13:28:27 [JeniT]
... a lot of citizen engagement platforms ask on specific topics
13:28:41 [JeniT]
... but it's hard to find participants that care enough to give that feedback
13:28:48 [JeniT]
... when you just listen you can see the trends
13:29:02 [JeniT]
... see what they *do* care about: maybe they just care about environment, not transport
13:29:18 [JeniT]
... these are different approaches for different goals
13:29:54 [JeniT]
Uldis: what do you expect to get from crowd-sourcing?
13:30:08 [JeniT]
Christian: we kept hearing stories about corruption, but we didn't write them down or map them
13:30:13 [cerealtom]

yvesr: surely its time for a game of crack attack!
13:30:33 [JeniT]
... they do have mobile phones, we have SMS number
13:30:49 [JeniT]
... we want to tell people they have something wrong in their country
13:31:27 [JeniT]
Kal: are you concerned about the demographic about people who contribute open data & participate on social media, and how that's different from demographic of general population?
13:31:45 [JeniT]
Takumi: in Japan, we don't have much difference
13:32:06 [JeniT]
... tends to be young people, lots of men, but otherwise not so much difference

... because of how they're funded
13:34:27 [JeniT]
... there are both types of users in each demographic
13:34:46 [floppy]

13:34:52 [JeniT]
... we're seeing a spread in access around Greece, among users who just want to find relevant information
13:35:04 [JeniT]
Deirdre: I'm not worried about the demographic as long as we're aware of it
13:35:10 [JeniT]
... we're not claiming that it's representative
13:35:18 [JeniT]
... you can build in SMSs or having real workshops
13:35:20 [CaptSolo]
s/panelmember: in/Yoshiaki Fukami: in/
13:35:31 [JeniT]

... some politicians have dashboards in which the weight of each statement is modified by Facebook friends or twitter followers
13:36:48 [JeniT]
... the rumour is that they can identify whether people are influential in their communities
13:37:08 [JeniT]
... will we see comments being weighted?
13:37:29 [JeniT]
Christian: like A/B testing politics: it's no longer politics just the most popular person wins
13:37:39 [JeniT]
Deirdre: is that something that should or can be stopped? probably not
13:37:51 [JeniT]
... if we just have opinions then it's biased & subjective
13:38:00 [JeniT]
... if we just have open data, it's not tied into human aspect
13:38:09 [JeniT]
... we need to combine the two to get the balance
13:38:22 [JeniT]
Michalis: if you can make objective information more attractive
13:38:36 [JeniT]
... can you relate election area to spending, for example
13:38:50 [JeniT]
... tagging the spatial location of the payment
13:39:00 [JeniT]
... you can find objective information in a subjective way
13:39:36 [JeniT]
Uldis: Concluding comments?

Michalis: we believe economic LOD should be nucleus of LOD
13:40:16 [JeniT]

13:42:12 [JeniT]
... bringing real use cases to complement the technical skills we bring
