  • OKFN built demonstrator to show whereealth, education, public, economic affairs, defence, public safety, social protection...etc
  • money tracking via data is only skin deep, in the billions, not able to easily track in the millions.
  • The 3 S's = Search, Storage and Services
  • these three are the infrastratructure for our scoiety
  • we are too h

        Chris Taggert
    Soundbites
        They don't want to be transparent in practice
    Local data
        A mess
            Sporadically published by central government
            Inacessible council websites
            Opaque local bodies
            Uncertain legal status
        Start with basics
            Who are the councilloors
            Where do they represent
            etc
    Background
        Inspiraction from Manchester project
            MCC works for you
        Screen scrapes council websites
        Make it available as linked data
            RDF
            JSON
            XML
    Where next
        More
            Data
            Councils
            Connections
        Others
            Elections
            Police
            etc
        Some things can;t be done programmatically
            Need crowdsourcing
        Visulizations
    Why does this matter
        Transparency
            See and understand what;s going on
        Engagement
            Remove barriers
        Equality of access
            Much of this data is already available
                For a price
        Efficiency
            A better way
                Open data we can all consume
    Simple questions that are hard to answer
        How does the budget of my council compare with others
        What are the backgrounds of my councillors
        What are the relationships between councillors and major providors
            Is this displayed on the register of interests?
    Exemplars
        Transparency
            Private Eye: Rotten Boroughs
                East riding yorkshire council
                Had Audit
                Audit BURIED on website
                    Nothing on council website
                    Nothing on audit commission website
                Now have a DUTY to engage
    Problems
        IDs
        Data tied up in pdfs
        more
    Open election project
        Tackling the open local data problem
        succeed or fail forward
            Fail forward?
                Learning from mistakes
        Publish election data with RDF semantic markup
            Consumed by RDF readers
        URIs as identifiers
            REALLY important
    Where next
        Freeedom of data act
        Change how gvnmt uses it
            Central
            Local
        Change relationship between gvnmt and citizen
        Support new business model
            Hyperlocal sites
            suppliers
                innovative

Peter Murray-Rust - Open Data in Science
Cambridge University, Unilever Centre for Molecular Informatics - http://www.ch.cam.ac.uk/staff/pm.html
  • About:
  • Meta: "Power corrupts; Powerpoint corrupts absolutely (Tufte)"
  • Why Open Data is essential
  • Software as an agent of revolution (liberation software
  • Panton Principles
  • IsItOpen
  • Chem4Word
  • Linked OpenData
  • "linked data without openness is crippled"
  • OpenBibliography
  • Have put in a JISC bid to open bibliographic data
  • Climate change example - lack of open data and open software
  • "as we are going under [due to climate change], at least we didn't violate copyright!"
  • copyright should not be used for political control
  • PMR is blaming agents of control: academic research librarians, non-profit and for-profit publishers - "agents of control" for scientific information
  • Chemistry - "most reactionary of the physical sciences"
  • software is controlled by commercial interests
  • American Chemical Society lobbied National Institutes of Health to shut down PubChem
  • Chem4Word
  • Linked data cloud
  • datasets linked in the world from W3C
  • biology datasets not formally open - can't reuse them without offending some restriction
  • might just be they haven't said they can
  • CrystalEye
  • collects together crystallography data - 130,000+ structures
  • Andrew Walkingshaw
  • Greasemonkey plugin for Inorg Chem journal [presumably to link togetehr keywords in J articles to entries -Tom]
  • "capture the latest crystallography from the web and to republish it on the web [with semantics]"
  • Acta Crystallographica - partner
  • open source software from Blue Obelisk to render 3D and 2D chem structures
  • Panton Principles
  • launched about a month or so ago
  • how do we make this problem solveable?
  • show scientists legal contracts and they turn off - want to get back to their labs
  • named after pub in Cambridge
  • [heh, I didn't know we had a CZ article on that. Need more pubs. -Tom]
  • make explicit and robust statement of your wishes
  • BMC journals endorse open data - chemistrycentral, j chemoinformatics
  • link to it from your site
  • IsItOpen?
  • Inspired by whatdotheyknow
  • ask questions of any data provider for their open provider
  • Q+A
  • [didn't hear the Q]
  • changing community norms - you are expected to publish in science
  • CRU e-mail hack - a lot of the data was closed due to agreements between research groups. Select Committee said all data should be open, but the research funding bodies make it closed! What leverage can we get on funding bodies to change this?
  • funding bodies aren't the problem. funding bodies in UK say data should be open.
  • condition of the grant that you publish your data.
  • relatively few funding bodies are against openness.
  • problem will disappear over the next few years.

Sits on coucil of OKFN, co-founder of DBPedia
technical stuff about linked data.
  • -tool ecosystem - DXX< SILK, SemMF, poolparty, ontowiki, sigma, ORE, dl-learner, sindice, monetdb, virtuoso, WiQA
  • create->interlink->fuse->classify->enrich->repair->create->...
  • popular datatypes mapped out, but specialised ones aren't. = long tail of information domains
  • RDF 101: entities, triples, content-negotiation
  • State of the LInked Data Nation

  • Ben O'Steen: semantic pingback - what about spam? how are you going to combat spam triples?
  • compare pingback and trackback - with pingback, you go and check whether it actually is linking back.
  • Ben O'Steen: but it is difficult! you need trusted networks

State of the Open Data Nation (w/ a slight legal perspective)
Jordan S. Hatcher, www.jordanhatcher.com
Director, Open Knoweldge Foundation
  • opendatacommons.org licenses - ODbL license, like CC or FSF GPL for data
  • being used by OpenStreetMap - CC BY-SA transition to ODbL
  • We need to think about data privacy: gaydar, Netflix, 
  • Q&A: 
  • How to become a project w/ OKFN? <- a form to fill out and informally reviewed by OKFN board?
  • Various licenses for software (OSS), content (CC) and data (ODbL)

  • The Open Letters Project
  • Letters create the 19th century social and cultural graphs
  • we can get an insight into: who the author was writing to; who the author was writing to; who the author was writing about; etc.
  • Transitioning from PHP → Python
  • HTML, XML and RDF representations of letters
  • beginning to visualise letters as data
  • volume 1 = 300 letters
  • FOAF + DC + ??? <- new namespaces, e.g. text schema ontology?
  • looking for more effort in project?
  • Q&A:
  • how might you use this? / easier for scholars to find where patterns might emerge in letter writing, e.g. to/from, return all letters to A from B mentioning Z.
  • James Harriman-Smith - The Marriage of Text and Technology: An introduction to Open Shakespeare
  • tools for searching and analysing shakespeare at first
  • moving towards annotation tools and translation tools
  • We don't have original texts, so there are differences.
  • "oh that this too too solid/sallied/sullied flesh would melt"
  • Looking to integrate with other criticism for annotations
  • wordhoard <- license doesn't allow it.
  • vandalism or disinformation is still a problem.
  • re printing shakespeare editions with annotation <- tangilisation! 
  • Q&A:
  • annotation of texts that do not have sources? / we need to have new models for annotation.
  • linking this with other literary texts? / yes, intertextual analysis accross a canon of texts?
  • cambridge faculty, extend to school teachers, etc.
  • Ben O'Steen - Making the Physical from the Digital
  • Background: Dealing with libraries
  • job is dealing with Word :(
  • Your interaction with the format and medium *matters*
  • do we need faithful representations?
  • www.pepysdiary.org
  • What about real things, can they seamlessy be moved back and forth between physical and digital?
  • 'makers' book is open and reformatable

Open Bibliography session: chaired by Jonathan Gray
 
The Itinerant Poetry Library, Sara Wingate Gray
  • The Library as a growing organism - Ranganthan's 5 Laws of Library Science
    - need to recognise user community much more, library patrons as co-curators, the future of libraries is participative, flexible, open-ended, community and sharing based. Principles of public domain need to be applied and advocated for much more in this arena or a digital land-grab will ensue which will make us all losers in the long term.
 
Journal  Commons: Open Process Academic Publishing in Practice, Toni  Prug & Juan Grigera, School of Business & Management, Queen  Mary: University of London 
 
OpenCitations.net - publishing  bibliographic citations as Open Linked Data using CiTO (Citation Typing  Ontology), David Shotton, University of Oxford
  • Adding semantics to a PLoS XML paper.
  • PLoS does not actually link to cited papers, just provide a search tool to assist -- too many clicks!
  • Speaker hopes PLoS will use it or similar to semantically indicate citation relationships
  • CiTO includes *why* the item was cited
  • <foo> cito:cites <bar>,
  • or <bar> isCitiedBy <foo>
  • opencitations.net
  • Setting up a triple store to describe citations 
  • data from UK Pubmed, PLoS biomed, CrossRef & Soton EPrints-

  • Larry Sanger set up
  • Like Wikipedia but with editors and citation names of people who write articles.
  • goal of 100k by 2012; not realistic at present
  • "the crank problem" <- fakers; from the paper: "hard to handle from an editorial perspective because those willing to invest their time on the topics are usually heavily biased in their approach, and most of those capable of evidence-based comment prefer not to contribute to these topics."

    Exemplars
        Grey Literature
            and grey data. the data is inside the 'grey' literature - unpublished literature that floats around between researchers
            Archaeology units conduct most excavations in the UK
            Problem
                Predominantly paper based recording (still)
                    Primary record is difficult to access digitally
                Excavations are written up as site reports (interpretative and data summary)
                These reports are not published: hence Grey Literature

        INSPIRE
            INSPIRE (INfrastructure for SPatial InfoRmation in Europe)
                EU Directive for a general framework describing Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI).
                Designed to facilitate European wide sharing of spatial information:
                    public sector organisations
                    public access
                    Improve decision making
                    Improve policy
                Advocate a schema based implementation
            INSPIRE applies to data held by public institutions
                This includes heritage data. Nominally:
                    Decoupled synthesis:
                        Sites and Monuments Records
                        National Monuments Records
                    National Mapping Programme (national AP dataset)
            Approaches
                INSPIRE conceptual approach
                    Lossy
                    Employs decoupled, synthesised and generalised data
                    Does not change to re-interpretation of the underlying source data
                    Requires digital data
                        the syntheses exist
                    Dynamic - source data updates but doesn’t change
                Linked Data conceptual approach
                    Flexible
                    Generic
                    Requires digital data
                        most primary data is not digital
                    Dynamic - can change to reflect the source data
                Not an either/or approach. BOTH open up heritage data
        Linked Dynamic Data
            Archaeological knowledge acquisition is a dynamic process
            Dynamic feedback allows theories/practice to be tested or revised
            Pottery Sequences
                Pottery is important for dating sites and deposits
                Classification based on form and fabric variations
                Dates derived from  stratified sequences (e.g. wells)
                Pottery sequences developed locally and integrated –
                    Regionally
                    Nationally
            Pottery classification
                Periodically sequences are reviewed
                    Clumping (owl:sameas)
                    Splitting
                    Refining date ranges
                Date changes impact on:
                    Interpretation
                    Significance
                    Policy
                    Think “Grey literature” but bigger!
                Unfortunately the data is decoupled and not linked. The primary and synthetic data is never/rarely re-interpreted
        DART
            What are the best ways to employ the different sensors (a multi-sensor approach) for the greatest heritage return?
                In particular how do we improve the use of different sensors in regional/national prospection programmes?
                What are the best conditions (e.g. environmental, seasonal, weather, crop) for deployment?
            Why open science
                25 heritage, industry and academic partners
                The best way to keep everyone informed is to adopt an open science philosophy
                    Wherever practicable all data will be in the public domain as soon as possible in accessible repositories
                    If successful SHARE-ME (a companion JISC bid) will simplify metadata generation, RDF generation and deposition
                    RDF data will be maintained with Talis.
                Will allow the science to be dynamically shared with colleagues throughout the world
                    Improve the scientific process
                    Improve results
                    Improve impact
                    More WOW moments

Clear  Climate Code – Our Role In Global Warming, 
David Jones and Nick  Barnes, Clear Climate Code - Ravenbrook Limited (Cambridge)
16.05pm start
  • GisTemp software - global historical climate network 
  • temperature series per area/time, e.g. England temp provided from 16th century forward
  • dataset is invaluable for making decisions given political climate
  • can download dataset as well as per machine data
  • open data is not enough
  • people don't want to believe it
  • software is described in 
  • 2007 code was published: FORTRAN 77 - 8000 lines of it!
  • established clear climate code goals: produce clear climate science software, encourage production of the software, increase public confidence in climate science results
  • retain all data -> refactor as Python -> 
  • 3562 lines of code.
  • Ergo, If your processing (alongside your data) is not published then you can't prove it.
  • /end 16.25
 
[Looked at the code - seems like the problem with the Fortran code is it isn't abstracted enough. The Python code seems to be a rewrite rather than a better abstraction. Basically, abstract away the lower level of the calculation. -Tom]
