2. Open Data support for Smart and Sustainable
Development (SSD)
Open Data Value (EU ,2016)
3. Creative Economy based on Open Data

5. Use of ICT for Disaster Management
Develop early warning systems
Enhancing coordination, cooperation, and logistics;
Develop databases of key disaster response agents
Adopt and implement Tempere Convetio
calls for streamlining of disaster relief process by waiving regulatory barriers & and putting in place
procedures that maximize access life saving ICT systems (SSDM Report, 2015)
6. Smart learning
Make learning process adaptive, effective, efficient, engaging, flexible and accessible
(Spector, 2014).
Provide learner‐centred environments that are intelligent and open, and integrate digital
virtual reality learning (Zhong & Zhang, 2006)
Use quality education to achieve SDGs- Poverty, hunger, good health, quality education,
gender equality, clean water & energy, economic growth, smart cities etc
7. Smart Sustainable Cities
Deploy IoTs and sensors
Install instruments for data collection and processing in support for efficient & effective
city mgt & planning
Build human capacity needed to support proper use of ICT
Build reliable heterogeneous ICT systems that support interoperability
Enable use and aggregation of data by systems and services
8. The Value of Open Data Sharing
Benefits in the areas of:
Economic Benefits
Social Welfare Benefits
Research and Innovation Opportunities
Education
Governance

9. FAIR Data recommended ?
• FAIR Data
• Findable: have sufficiently rich metadata and a unique and persistent identifier.
• Accessible: retrievable by humans and machines through a standard protocol; open
and free; authentication and authorization where necessary.
• Interoperable: metadata use a ‘formal, accessible, shared, and broadly applicable
language for knowledge representation’.
• Reusable: metadata provide rich and accurate information; clear usage license;
detailed provenance.
• FAIR Guiding Principles for scientific data management and stewardship,

• Guiding Principles for FAIR Data: https://www.force11.org/node/6062
10. Open Data limits
For data created with public funds or where there is a strong demonstrable public
interest, Open should be the default.
As Open as Possible as Closed as Necessary.
Proportionate exceptions for:
Legitimate commercial interests (sectoral variation)
Privacy (‘safe data’ vs Open data – the anonymisation problem)
Public interest (e.g. endangered species, archaeological sites)
Safety, security and dual use (impacts contentious)
11. Open Data Policy Development
• Open Data policy development need to be based on the following three pillars:
1. C-context
2. C-content
3. I-impact
11
12. Policy Context Pillar
Key factors include:
Level of Gov organization
Key motivations, policy objectives
Open data platform launch
Resource allocation & economic context
Legislation
Social, cultural & Political context
Drivers for open data
Forces against Opening data
12
13. Policy Content Pillar
Key factors include:
Licensing
Access fee
Data restriction
Data presentation
Contact with user
Amount published
Processing before publishing
Cost of opening
Types of Data
Data Formats & stds
Data quality
Provision of metadata
13
14. Policy Impact Pillar
Key factors include:
Re-use of published data
Possible predicted risks
Benefits aligned with motivation
Public value
Transparency & accountability
Economic growth
Entrepreneurial open data use/ innovation
Efficiency
Environmental sustainability
Inclusion of marginalized
14
15. Key Strategic Pillars of Sustainable Open Data Programs
Support open data infrastructure build based on open data policies standards and
supportive legal and licensing frameworks
Make data publishing and access available and easy
Create feedback channels for data users
Prioritize dataset that users want
Address quality issues of datasets
Protect privacy rights
Provide clear, consistent, and useful metadata

16. JORD Policy
JKUAT developed and implemented an open research data policy (JORD) Policy (February
2016)
JORD expected benefits include
1. ROI
2. Encouragement of diverse studies and opinion
3. Promotion of new areas of work not envisioned by the initial investigators.
4. Strengthen the credibility of scholarly publications
5. Development of new products and services
6. Support JKUAT open data platform (https://opendata.jkuat.ac.ke

18. Innovative Open Data and Visualization (iODaV)
The specific objectives of AFRICA ai JAPAN Project Sub-Task Force are as follows:
Enable and promote innovations based on open research data published, preserved and
accessible for sharing and reuse.
Enable and promote innovations and decision making process through use of data,
information and scientific visualization
Support Smart Learning
Support and promote conformity with open data principles, standards and JKUAT Open
Research Data (JORD) Policy
Support and enable multidisciplinary research activities.
Enable use and reuse of research data to accelerate innovations and achievement of the
Kenya Vision 2030, and the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Kenya and the
region
Link and be linked to other open data platforms.
