Open Data: How it is leading
The document summarizes the history of population censuses in Nepal, beginning with early counts of households prior to the 19th century. It then discusses how early population estimates were made and challenges in collecting data at that time. It provides examples of early census methods from the UK and US, and how technology has advanced census taking over time. Finally, it defines open data and discusses why opening government and other data is important for innovation, efficiency and transparency.
Daniel's blizzard project
A blizzard is a severe snowstorm with winds over 35 mph, heavy snowfall, and visibility under 1/4 mile for over 3 hours. Blizzards are dangerous due to whiteout conditions making driving and walking impossible. High winds and cold temperatures can cause frostbite or hypothermia very quickly. The 1888 Great Blizzard was one of the worst, dropping 40-50 inches of snow along the East Coast and causing over 400 deaths.
Open Data Open Knowledge
Open Knowledge Foundation Nepal promotes open data, open content, and open knowledge. Open data means information that is publicly available in a machine-readable format for anyone to access and reuse freely. The Open Knowledge Foundation is a global movement working to open up knowledge by educating and empowering people on open principles. Their goal is to make "open by default" central to developing a knowledge society.
Snowstorms in New York City
The document discusses major snowstorms that have impacted New York City throughout history. It provides details on the largest snowfall amounts recorded in each storm, such as the 26.9 inches that fell over two days in February 2006 and 25.8 inches in December 1947. Photos show the significant snow accumulation and impacts on travel and daily life in NYC during these major storms, including the Blizzard of 1888 where 21 inches of snow fell. The document also summarizes more recent snowstorms in January 1996, February 2010, and January 2015.
Snow ppt
A simple power point about snow that explains the different types of snow, how if falls, and recreation activities.
State of the Word 2011
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for both physical and mental health. It notes that regular exercise can reduce the risk of diseases like heart disease and diabetes, improve mood, and reduce feelings of stress and anxiety. The document recommends that adults get at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous exercise per week to gain these benefits.

Open Data and Nepal Open Data Index
I used this presentation during Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) Nepal Community weekly hangout, where I talked about the importance of Open Data and our survey Nepal Open Data Index.
On intro presentation - Victoia Room
This document discusses Open Nepal, an initiative to promote open data and its use for development in Nepal. It is a collaborative platform involving intermediaries and data users to make data more accessible and help with analysis. The National Federation of NGOs in Nepal (NFN) and Freedom Forum are two organizations supporting Open Nepal. NFN aims to establish a database of NGOs on the portal to promote transparency. Freedom Forum works on issues like democracy and human rights and wants to contribute to Open Nepal to increase aid transparency in Nepal. Both organizations will build capacity of journalists, NGOs and other intermediaries on accessing, analyzing and using aid and budget data.
Building a Global Open Education Working Group
The document summarizes Marieke Guy's presentation on building a global open education working group. The key points are:
1) The working group was established by Open Knowledge to bring together people and groups interested in open education and initiate cross-sector collaboration around open education issues.
2) The working group was officially launched at OKCon in 2013 and has focused on transparent operations, advisory boards, community building activities, and producing works like the Open Education Handbook.
3) Future plans include growing the member base, linking with other organizations, and allowing the working group to develop organically based on community interests.
Grassroots awareness and the impact of Civic Tech in Nepal
Nepal made a significant improvement in the field of Openness, especially in Open Data. The government showed some commitment by starting a discussion and made some notable decision to promote the culture of collaboration. This was made possible because of the active participation of CSOs and grassroots awareness. Civic technology has been the backbone, projects like Open Data Nepal, AskNepal etc are making an impact. In the session, I will share how we can run the grassroots awareness to create an inclusive ecosystem and use civic technology to develop reliable products.
Open Knowledge Network
The document is about the Open Knowledge Network, which uses advocacy and technology to open up knowledge and empower citizens and organizations to drive positive change. It builds tools and communities to create, use, and share open knowledge - content and data that everyone can use, share, and build on. The Network believes that an open knowledge commons and related tools and communities can significantly improve governance, research, and the economy. It advocates that knowledge should be open and free to use, reuse, redistribute without restriction.

Open Access, Open Science, and Open Research
Open Access, Open Science, and Open Research discusses key concepts related to openness in research. It defines open access as making scientific literature and research outputs freely available. While open access focuses on publications, open science is broader and includes open research data, methods, experiments, and tools. The document advocates for greater open science practices in Nepal, where data sharing is currently limited, by encouraging individuals and funders to publish in open access journals, share research data, and support open science policies.

OER16 - Skills not Silos - Open Data as OER
Open Data is produced and used at various levels in research, governance, policy making and civil society. So far though, conversation around its value and significance has tended to occur within an Open Data silo, existing in parallel with other open discussions around Open Educational Resources and Open Access. In our presentation we explore practices which make use of Open Data as OER, with a focus on the the opportunities and challenges inherent in this approach.
For the OECD, “All citizens should have equal opportunities and multiple channels to access information, be consulted and participate. Every reasonable effort should be made to engage with as wide a variety of people as possible.” A central challenge in higher education is to develop skills useful not only at subject/professional level, but which also engage students with real-word problems. The skills needed to participate in democratic discussions can be understood as transversal skills, defined by UNESCO (2015) as “Critical and innovative thinking, inter-personal skills; intra personal skills, and global citizenship”. If one of our goals as educators is to develop these transversal skills in students, towards enabling them to function as citizens, to actively participate in the discourse and debates of society, then we propose that Open Data can play a key role.
Open Data has been understood as key to research, policy and governance development, and also heralded as a force for democratic discourse and participation, but in our view, this is not achieved by opening data alone. By using Open Data in research- and scenario- based learning activities, educators can enhance the information, digital, statistical and data analysis literacies that can empower students, and ultimately citizens and communities. Such pedagogic activities allow students to learn using the same raw materials researchers and policy- makers produce and use.
Drawing from a series of case studies of the use of Open Data as OER, we suggest educators consider the following elements
Focus: define the research problem and its relation to the environment students.
Practicality: match technical applications and practices to expected solutions.
Expectations: set realistic expectations for data analysis.
Directions: support in finding data portals which contain appropriate information.
Training: provide training materials for the software students will need to analyse the data.
Location: use global, local and scientific data which is as granular as possible.
Modelling: develop model solutions to guide students on the challenges and activities.
Collaboration: support students to work collaboratively and at multidisciplinary level.
Communication: support students in communicating their findings to local or wider communities.
Okf ireland talk
The document discusses the work of the Open Knowledge Foundation (OKF) in making knowledge open and accessible through open data initiatives. The OKF builds tools to work with open data, connects people and organizations, and provides training and resources through their School of Data. Open data has led to benefits like helping firefighters locate homes more easily and reducing infant mortality and improving health outcomes in Uganda. The OKF argues that open data can help solve global problems by giving choice, transparency, and allowing ideas to spread and scale more easily. They encourage people to get involved in helping create a more open knowledge society.

Open Educational Resources and Capacity Building for Development
The document discusses how open educational resources (OER) can help build capacity for development through enabling education. It provides examples of organizations using OER to increase access to education in places like South Africa, Kenya, and Ghana by lowering costs, allowing for localization and sharing of resources worldwide. The document concludes by recommending that governments foster awareness and use of OER to widen access to education and improve quality through greater sharing of open materials.

TraSync Pitch
TraSync is an online booking engine for travel agencies in Nepal that allows customers to book flights, hotels, and transportation directly from travel agency websites. Currently, most travel agency websites only allow inquiries to be submitted, which are then processed manually. This leads to less than 20% of websites generating tourists, with an average of 15 hours needed to process each inquiry. TraSync aims to automate this process, allowing 100% guaranteed services to customers and reducing processing times to zero. The system will first focus on flight bookings before expanding to include hotel and transportation services. TraSync expects to generate $8 million in revenue in its first year after launching the full platform.
When Technology meets Tourism : trasyn.com
Nepal has great potential in tourism due to its natural beauty and cultural values, but it is not effectively promoting itself or providing timely information and responses to tourists. Most tourists only know about Mount Everest and Kathmandu, and find information through outdated travel sites or emails that may not get a response. In comparison, popular tourist destinations like Dubai Mall, Louvre Museum, and San Diego Zoo attract much larger numbers of visitors each year through better online systems. A new platform called Trasyn aims to create an automated online tourism system in Nepal to help book flights, buses, taxis, hotels and plan destinations.
Common Issues found in Government Site
The document discusses common issues with open data in Nepal, specifically budget data from Kathmandu Metropolitan that was published in a PDF file format using a non-Unicode font. This made the data non-editable and difficult to understand. The document proposes using open standards to publish data in open formats like XML, CSV or JSON and in a Unicode font to make the data more accessible and usable. It provides contact information for the Open Knowledge Foundation Nepal to discuss open data issues.
Opportunity and Challenges of Computer Science and Information Technology
The document summarizes some of the challenges and opportunities in computer science and information technology (CSIT) studies based on the experiences of Prakash Neupane. It notes that while the industry demands experience, students need the industry to gain that experience. However, it encourages students to believe in themselves, take responsibility, participate in their environment, and start projects today rather than waiting. It outlines opportunities for students through projects, research, meeting industry demands, further study, and startups. The document concludes by asking for examples of successful people to help motivate students.
Wikipedia Open content Repository
Wikipedia is a free, multi-lingual, online encyclopedia written and edited by volunteers from around the world. It currently has over 30 million articles across 287 languages. Anyone can create or edit articles, subject to certain guidelines, with over 500 million unique visitors per month making it one of the most popular websites globally. The open and collaborative nature of Wikipedia has made it the largest repository of open knowledge content in the world.
Community for Students : Firefox Student Ambassador
The document discusses the Firefox Student Ambassador program. It provides an overview of the program, including its mission to promote Firefox and educate others about Mozilla's mission of an open web. It outlines the responsibilities of student ambassadors such as event speaking, recruiting contributors, and graphic design. Ambassadors receive benefits like leadership experience, networking opportunities, and potential internships. The document provides details on how to get involved, recognition for participation, and office hours for answering questions.
Open GLAM
The document discusses Open GLAM, an initiative promoting open access to cultural heritage held by galleries, libraries, archives, and museums (GLAM). It notes that GLAM institutions hold records of human knowledge and the internet allows broader access and participation. Open GLAM principles include releasing metadata and representations of public domain works openly, using open formats, and engaging audiences. The document lists open-source tools developed by Open Knowledge Foundation partners for working with open cultural data, including Textus for collaborating on digitized texts and CrowdCrafting for crowd-sourcing tasks.

Sort filter-visualization Data
Spreadsheets are a basic tool for organizing and analyzing data. They allow users to sort data into logical order, filter out unwanted values, and visualize data through graphs and charts. This helps users gain insights from datasets by orienting themselves to extremes, focusing on relevant values, and understanding trends in a graphical format rather than just numbers. The document demonstrates these spreadsheet functions through examples to show how they are commonly used to wrangle and better understand data.
Open Spending
Open Spending is a project that aims to track all public government and corporate financial transactions around the world and present the data in useful and engaging formats. The goal is to increase transparency by mapping where money comes from and where it goes. Citizens have a right to know how their tax money and donations are being spent by governments and organizations. Open Spending uses open data and visualizations like tree maps and bubble trees to help people understand and analyze spending at different levels.
