OpenData is the idea based on which certain data and information system interfaces should be freely available for everyone to use and republish
as they wish, without restrictions from copyright, patents or other mechanisms of control.
The use and application of the principles of openness in the public administration and among the citizens has many important consequences
which influence the very character of our society. Many organizations worldwide are addressing these phenomena. OpenData.sk workgroup,
operating as a participative community of the Utopia.sk project, is striving to bring enlightenment and important innovations from the OpenData
domain to the Slovak environment. The workgroup is concentrating on the topics such as standards and quality of published data and system
interfaces as well as topics of availability, publishing and visualization.
The presentation during the ITAPA congress will address the potential of multiple applications of OpenData interfaces for the purpose of optimal
integration of services and data between the public administration, citizens and third sector as well as among the individual organizations of the
public administration.
