Bristol's Open Data Journey
Jan 2016 talk to SW Data Meetup by Kevin O'Malley (City Innovation Team Manager, Bristol City Council) at the "OPEN DATA SPECIAL: Kickstarting ODI Bristol" event.
The open data landscape in Bristol is evolving rapidly. This special meetup will update South West Data on recent developments, including an opportunity for the Meetup to become the City's official Open Data Institute (ODI) network - kickstarting ODI Bristol with an established network of data experts to which the ODI Node would bring data producers and data consumers into the mix.
In January 2015, Kevin O'Malley, Bristol City Council, gave a well-received talk to a packed meetup about Bristol is Open and the Open Programmable City API. One year on he will be returning to talk about ODI Bristol and update the group on additions to the City's open data portfolio, including Bristol API (Transport).
There's also a lot going on in open data in the region, outside of Bristol City Council and Jen Williams, from NetworkedPlanet, will be pitching an idea for South West Data to host an Open Data Camp, an "unconference", which would involve taking over the Watershed for a weekend and a mix of local, national and international (un)delegates.
The meetup will allow time for, appropriately, open discussion, questions and answers from the speakers and the audience.
Tom Heath, Head of Research at ODI, Leigh Dodds, Senior Consultant at ODI, and Martin Howitt, from ODI Devon Node, will all be at hand to contribute to the discussion and answer questions.

Open data in the global south
Presentation by Dan van der Horst at University of Edinburgh Open Knowledge Network event, 31st January 2017
Open Data & Open Gov
Open data and open government can foster more transparent and engaged interactions between governments and citizens when both have equal access to information. Some key benefits include increased civic engagement, economic opportunities from data reuse and innovation, and more participatory governance. However, governments often resist open data due to concerns about costs, privacy, and losing control over data. For data to have value, it needs to be widely available in open and machine-readable formats along with guidelines for appropriate use. When combined with civic participation, open data can power applications that create social and economic benefits.

DWS15 - Future Networks Forum - Gigabit Networks - Blair Levin Gig-U
The document discusses efforts by communities and universities to accelerate the deployment of gigabit broadband networks. It finds that the standard private investment equation for telecommunications companies does not currently justify investing in next-generation networks. However, cities can change this calculation by reducing costs, increasing revenues, and adding ecosystem benefits through tactics like aggregating demand, utilizing existing assets, pursuing regulatory reforms, and incentivizing competition. The roles of various city stakeholders are also outlined, including centralizing fiber asset data, educating citizens, performing preparatory engineering work, and establishing fiber-friendly policies and public-private partnerships.

Abstract:
In a technological society such as Canada, it is suggested that a specialized kind of expert citizenship is needed (Andrew Feenberg). In the era of big data, others suggest that there is a need to learn how to read algorithms and to study its high priests and alchemists (Genevieve Bell). While, doing citizenship requires a political ethics of technology to thwart technological and quantitative fundamentalism (Darin Barney). Finally, in the midst of a data revolution we need to critically re-conceptualize data (Rob Kitchin). Quite simply, in today's Canada doing citizenship requires data literacy, technical, philosophical and political. Access to print media - books, government documents, academic journals - in libraries and archives enabled a literate society, the prerequisite of a democratic system. I argue that good governance in knowledge producing institutions, is to have technological experts, both data creators and preservers, working to store, manage, disseminate and preserve data so that we have the requisite artifacts to increase our literacy and build upon collected knowledge. Data literacy I suggest, is indispensable in the current democratic system, and that requires having access to data, data infrastructures - knowledge and technology - and dedicated skilled people and resources to sustainably care for them. I consider research data management to be our duty.

1. Community informatics aims to empower communities with information and communication technologies through both bottom-up, grassroots approaches and top-down support from funders and policymakers.
2. Both approaches are needed to effectively drive digital transformation - bottom-up mobilization empowers communities while top-down support provides enabling policies and resources.
3. For technologies like ICTs and mobiles to truly benefit development, they must be integrated into existing community programs and activities, facilitating processes in a way that builds on local needs and resources.
wireless sensor network
This document discusses the challenges of building a network infrastructure to support big data applications. Large amounts of data are being generated every day from a variety of sources and need to be aggregated and processed in powerful data centers. However, networks must be optimized to efficiently gather data from distributed sources, transport it to data centers over the Internet backbone, and distribute results. The unique demands of big data in terms of volume, variety and velocity are testing whether current networks can keep up. The document examines each segment of the required network from access networks to inter-data center networks and the challenges in supporting big data applications.
From Aspiration to Reality: Open Smart Cities
From Aspiration to Reality: Open Smart Cities
Open smart cities might become a reality for Canada. Globally there are a number of initiatives, programs, and practices that are open smart city like which means that it is possible to have an open, responsive and engaged city that is both socio-technologically enabled, but also one where there is receptivity to and a willingness to grow a critically informed type of technological citizenship (Feenberg). For an open smart city to exist, public officials, the private sector, scholars, civil society and residents and citizens require a definition and a guide to start the exercise of imagining what an open smart city might look like. There is much critical scholarship about the smart city and there are many counter smart city narratives, but there are few depictions of what engagement, participatory design and technological leadership might be. The few examples that do exist are project based and few are systemic. An open smart city definition and guide was therefore created by a group of stakeholders in such a way that it can be used as the basis for the design of an open smart city from the ground up, or to help actors shape or steer the course of emerging or ongoing data and networked urbanist forms (Kitchin) of smart cities to lead them towards being open, engaged and receptive to technological citizenship.
This talk will discuss some of the successes resulting from this Open Smart Cities work, which might also be called a form or engaged scholarship. For example the language for the call for tender of the Infrastructure Canada Smart City Challenge was modified to include as a requisite that engagement and openness be part of the submissions from communities. Also, those involved with the guide have been writing policy articles that critique either AI or the smart city while also offering examples of what is possible. These articles are being read by proponents of Sidewalk Labs in Toronto. Also, the global Open Data Conference held in Argentina in September of 2018 hosted a full workshop on Open Smart Cities and finally Open North is working toward developing key performance indicators to assess those shortlisted by Infrastructure Canada and to help those communities develop an Open Smart Cities submission. The objective of the talk is to demonstrate that it is actually possible to shift public policy on large infrastructure projects, at least, in the short term.
