What is exactly open data?
Why should you make your data open?
How can you make your data open?

Data should
themselves be
considered the
primary output
of research

One could just argue that data produced
with public funds belong to the public

But there are so many more great reasons
for data to be open
develop new
analysis methods
improve research
practices
guarantee data
preservation
reduce cost of
science
engage
with citizens
increase visibility and
collaborations
science-driven motivations
society-driven motivations
data users
benefits
data producers
benefits
enhance reproducibility
ask new questions
advance science

Open data means more hands at work, more
brain power and faster innovations

Open data creates a culture of transparency
and potentially discourages fraud
Wicherts et al., PloS one, 2011
“Willingness to share research data is related to the strength of
the evidence and the quality of reporting of statistical results”

Open data means more reproducibility and
better research practices

Open data means also visibility and a higher
chance to get cited

The Panton Principles are a pretty good
starting point
1. When publishing data, make an explicit and robust statement of your
wishes.
2. Use a recognized copyright waiver or license that is appropriate for data.
3. If you want your data to be effectively used and added to by others, it
should be open as defined by the Open Knowledge/Data Definition—in
particular, non-commercial and other restrictive clauses should not be used.
4. Explicit dedication of data underlying published science into the public
domain via PDDL (http://opendatacommons.org/licenses/pddl/1-0/) or
CCZero (http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/) is strongly
recommended and ensures compliance with both the Science Commons
Protocol for Implementing Open Access Data and the Open Knowledge/Data
Definition.

A lot of repositories are available to upload
research materials and data

You certainly don’t need to know more than
1,500 repositories by heart

There also exist a number of data journals

Making data available is only one half of the
open data equation
intelligent access to the data and interoperability are crucial
