We would like to invite your comments on the proposed recommended datasets review of open data.

Published:: Oct 12, 2022

In Digital Agency, we invite your opinions on the proposed review of open data recommended datasets at the Digital Agency Idea Box.

Opinion Summary

Please tell us about your expectations and recommended datasets regarding the Open Data local government Review Proposal (Issue Standard Dataset).

Purpose

The purpose of recommended datasets is to promote the disclosure and utilization of open data. It summarizes the data that the government recommends to be disclosed and the rules and formats that should be followed when creating the data.

Since the start of the initiative in 2017, recommended datasets has been updated sequentially. As of March 2022, the number of local government where open data corresponding to recommended datasets is disclosed was 468 (according to Digital Agency), which is slightly more than one fourth of the total number of local government, and the recognition and spread of open data has advanced to a certain extent.

On the other hand, the results of survey and other surveys have highlighted points that need to be improved. This time, we have revised the name of "recommended datasets" to "local government Standard Dataset" and formulated a review plan with significantly revised and added content in cooperation with GIF (Government Interoperability Framework).
