Data is disruptive, powerful and dangerous. Data is the opportunity and, as a resource, it is growing exponentially. This is disruption. Linear solutions don't apply. Be prepared. Data will make the industrial revolution look like a blip. Liken it to an ice-age or a tsunami of information. It will change everything.

Editor's Notes
- Notion of using data not new. More focus on evidence based decision making is being powered by digital and big data An American engineer, statistician, professor, author, lecturer, and management consultant Many in Japan credit Deming as one of the inspiration for what has become known as the Japanese post-war economic miracle of 1950 to 1960, when Japan rose from the ashes of war to start Japan on the road to becoming the second largest economy in the world through processes partially influence by the ideas Deming taught
- Be prepared. It will make the industrial revolution look like blip. Liken it to an ice-age or a tsunami of information. it will change everything.
- Data is the opportunity and, as a resource, it is growing exponentially. This is disruption. Linear solutions don’t apply.
- A challenge the entire industry is facing, almost putting cart before the horse There has been a focus on creating data, less around what to do with the data As such, we are leaving significant value on the table
- Recent US election has illustrated our shortcomings in dealing with data Points to a systemic breakdown that we need to address before we can unlock the true value
- The value flow of data in a perfect world
- Arguably, not a shortage of data We need to do a better job of processing it Most lucrative part of the value chain
- Must be all about the data Source agnostic Need to shed the hype and focus on value creation I want to focus on open data in particular.
- What is open data?
- How open is the data?
- Who has the data?
- Readiness: the readiness of states, citizens and entrepreneurs to secure the benefits of open data Implementation: Are governments putting their commitments into practice? Impact: Is open government data being used in ways that bring practical benefit?
- The release of open data is trending in the upward direction. Canada is one of many nations that are adopting open data policies. Open data is not a resource that is unique to Canada. This is a global phenomena McKinsey report released in October 2013, Open data: Unlocking innovation and performance with liquid information.
- It can be used to provide value in a wide variety of ways
- Companies have already built multi-billion dollar businesses on Open Data, even though we may not know them as such. Intuit – TurboTax, based on open disclosure of tax calculations Weather Network – based on one of the oldest forms of government open data, weather forecasts and reports Garmin – heavy user of open GIS data and GPS location, and Zillow – heavy user of geospatial, tax rolls, and real-estate data
- A sampling of activity in Canada
- Retail analytics
- Historically, open data was made available with transparency and open government in mind
- The Canadian Open Data Exchange, a public-private partnership, has been created to help the private sector tap into open data sources for commercial benefit Its success will be measured by the success of the private sector partners it serves.
- Along the way, ODX will enable the creation of supply chains using an ecosystem approach. ODX will identify Canadian capabilities in every part of the supply chain. ODX will create awareness around those that are already using open data and will serve as an advocate to inform the supply chain of the needs of the applications, thereby driving standards and policy.
- OD150 for Canada’s 150th birthday. Hoping to have action plans based on the findings from OD150 for Canada’s 150th birthday. Canada is the 6th member of the OD500 international network, which also includes Australia, Mexico, Italy, Korea, and the United States. By joining this network, ODX gains knowledge of how companies around the world are using open data. We’ll also get to learn how other countries are improving the business climate for open companies through improved access to data and ongoing advocacy efforts
- Respondent location: The majority of early respondents are located in Ontario & Quebec, with 3 regions demonstrating an emerging yet mature industrial Open Data capability – Greater Toronto Area, Waterloo Region, and Montreal. Greatest challenge to business success: Respondents were asked to identify their top business challenges. Unsurprisingly, there are a myriad of challenges facing companies using open data in Canada, and respondent companies were consistent in the areas they found most challenging. As Canada begins to understand the needs of businesses using Open Data, these challenges present important guideposts for creating greater opportunity for businesses.
- Data sources: There is a consistent use of data from all government jurisdictions in Canada – knowing that many of these companies are location specific due to data availability, this demonstrates a significant opportunity for governments to create common data sets and standards to permit companies to scale. It is also interesting that some Canadian companies have been able to integrate US data sets into their business. Revenue source: There is a strong preponderance among respondent companies towards revenue streams based on analyzing and interpreting data for clients. As many respondents identified “difficulty finding/accessing data” as a key challenge, it is reasonable to expect that those who are familiar with open data have parlayed this knowledge into analytical services for companies that do not have this capability. Industries represented: There is a wide distribution of industries represented, a result of the (1) varying availability of data across jurisdictions and (2) levels of granularity. It is expected that one of the leading industries is Geospatial/Mapping, as at the Federal and Provincial levels the most frequently released open data sets are geospatial (NRCan is the leading Federal department with over 110,000 open data sets on Canada’s open data portal).
- Criteria for businesses: Identify how open data drives economic benefit for your business Identify and advocate for the release of open data sets Share standards and other requirements to simplify and improve the use of Open Data Participate and provide employees with access to Open Data training programs Criteria for Government: Release and update Open Data as part of their mandate; data must be machine-readable and allowed for re-use and re-distribution Provide the means for businesses & individuals to download Open Data Promote programs that use Open Data Regularly Interface with businesses to understand commercial uses of open data and additional needs
