3 Principles
• Channel strategy
• Transparency (on-going dialogue to match expectations)
• Communication strategy ’relatively reactive’
Phase 1. Inform using newly designed gst.dk – targeted at the public, developers,
enterprises and the public sector

relation to open data?

All actors in the geodata field have just recieved a
large gift from the government - a gift that
improves the competitiveness of Danish
enterprises, stimulates innovation, and creates
more efficient public-sector service. We just have
to dare to think in a new way.
