In most countries, the public sector is the biggest single producer and owner of a large variety of data and information. Health, geographic, food, water, financial reports, socioeconomic statistics, legislation, and many other kinds of information produced by/for governments are collectively referred to as Public Sector Information (PSI). PSI represents an important resource with vast scientific and socioeconomic potential to different communities.
In this paper, I share and discuss the analysis and findings from the data I collected during my six months fieldwork in South Africa for my dissertation. I investigate whether, and if so how, PSI is utilized by South African organizations working in the area of socioeconomic development research and policy activities. More specifically, my study aims to answer the following questions:
- To what extent and in what ways is PSI utilized by these organizations?
- What characteristics and conditions of the PSI facilitate or hinder its acquisition and assimilation?
- What organizational conditions enable successful exploitation of PSI?
Employing a qualitative, multiple-case approach, I draw upon literature from the fields of economics of information and organizational studies to understand the organizations’ processes to identify, acquire (including factors that facilitate or hinder access and acquisition), assimilate, and exploit this strategic resource. My case studies explore how these organizations transform PSI from a source of potential value to a source of actual value to their socioeconomic development research and policy activities. I also use ideas from organizational learning and innovation literatures to understand the organizational conditions (internal and external) for successful utilization of the PSI. Mainly qualitative data were collected from these organizations through in-depth, semi-structured interviews and document analysis over a period of six months.
My analysis and findings suggest that the PSI represents an important strategic resource to the development work of these organizations, uncovers important obstacles facing them in identifying, acquiring, and utilizing the PSI, and documents some best practices and organizational factors that facilitate these processes. It is expected that the discussions and findings of this study will have theoretical and policy contributions, and will be of special importance to organizations working in the area of socioeconomic development, the government of South Africa (and hopefully governments in other developing/developed countries), and subsequently to the people of South Africa.

Accessibility is a complex property of information, a composite of several different indicators that measure the ease with which one can get to and work with information from another source. These different indicators of accessibility scale differently with the size and scope of information. As the datasets get bigger, some indicators remain constant, some scale linearly, while others may scale in a more accelerated manner. At the University of Wisconsin Carbon Modeling group, we are building a very large, spatially accessible U.S. national climate dataset for ecosystem process modeling that is bringing up unique challenges and lessons for accessibility in the multi-Terabyte scale datasets. This paper describes the problem, and the information accessibility challenges and lessons learned while putting together its solution.

Documents licensed under public licenses, such as the Creative Commons Licenses and the GNU General Public License, can be freely redistributed and reused. The public sector generates a huge amount of documents and publications, of which the majority need to reach to the citizen and various stakeholders. We will present some case studies from Taiwan on how public licenses are used in the public sector, with an emphasis on the practices in publicly funded cultural and research programs. Although increasingly there is awareness of the Creative Commons Licenses and open source software licenses, the use of these licenses in government departments, publicly owned corporations, and funding bodies remains rather limited in scope. We will discuss some of the barriers to wider dissemination of public sector information (PSI) in Taiwan, and propose that major policy decisions are needed in order to further open up Taiwan’s PSI.

Governments and their administrative agencies continuously create, collect, manage, and store vast quantities of digital data and information, including a broad range of scientific and technical data, and increasingly disseminate much of it online. There is a growing recognition by both the public and private sectors of the importance of such public sector information (PSI) to the economy and society. Despite this recognition, there is surprisingly a poor understanding of how PSI is actually used, especially by individual users, its economic and social value and impact, and of the effects of different access and use policies. There is a concomitant lack of comprehensive or detailed empirical data about the users and effects of PSI disseminated on the internet, and of the different policy approaches to the dissemination of PSI.
This presentation will describe some of the issues in measuring the economic and social effects of PSI and summarize the methodologies used in such assessments.

After having lagged in developing information policy frameworks during the decade up to the mid-2000s, recent developments have seen Australian governments (at federal, state and local levels) re-position themselves close to the leading edge of policy and practice on public sector information (PSI) access and reuse. Acceptance of the recommendations proposed by committees of inquiry into the issue, the reform of Freedom of Information (FOI) laws to support proactive release of PSI, the establishment of Information Commissioner Offices by federal and State governments, the widespread adoption of Creative Commons licensing of government copyright materials and use of web 2.0 technologies to distribute PSI, demonstrate that Australian governments increasingly grasp the social and economic importance of PSI. The Australian Government’s Declaration of Open Government (July 2010) reaffirms the federal government’s commitment to this course, pursuing “open government based on a culture of engagement, built on better access to and use of government held information, and sustained by the innovative use of technology.” While real progress has been made towards the implementation of broad-reaching information strategies, attention is now required to the further development of the policy framework, the principles governing information access and re-use and practical guidance tools. A notable feature of the Australian experience is the use of open content licences (primarily Creative Commons licences) on copyright-protected PSI, not only as an operational mechanism for managing government copyright but also as a driver of information policy. By releasing their materials under non-exclusive, open content licences, government agencies have adopted a policy position that, by default, PSI that is made available for access will also be able to be used and reused.
