Project Overview
10.04.23 Forum Virium Helsinki 2
“Making regional information quickly and easily accessible to all. The information can be used freely at no cost”
To develop a network of
information owners who maintain and
open their data following common
guidelines.
To build a web service through
which the data can be easily found, accessed and
utilised.
Provide information as machine readable ”raw data” which is easy to
utilize in various applications and web-services.
To pilot an open data activity model and its implications to both the
producers and end users of the data.

district, grid-level, etc.
2. Geospatial data– Data that supports presentation of
statistical and other data on a map, i.e. district-level shapefiles.
3. Other data– Public services, mass-transportation,
infrastructure related data, etc.

semantic.hri.fi – experimenting with linked open data (lod) and statistics
• Experimental service. Includes Helsinki metropolitan area statistics in a semantic RDF-database. Source statistics from www.aluesarjat.fi (PC-Axis).
• To pilot and understand the possibilities of lod and statistical data in terms of compatibility and linkages to external data sources.
• Application programming interfaces aimed for developers who are interested in using statistical data for various applications and analysis.
• SPARQL ja HTTP GET interfaces.
• Example applications.

Project focus areas 2011• Further development of the www.hri.fi service
• Establishing the HRI-function (people, processes, guidelines, etc.)
• More open data, better open data, wider scope of open data, inter-usability of data!
• Encouraging the usage of the data, application competitions for developers, co-operation with companies, universities, etc. that want to use it. Apps4Finland2011 (apps4finland.fi). IBM Smarter Cities Challenge in Helsinki. Preparing for WDC Helsinki 2012.
• National and international co-operation related especially to: legal issues, operational best-practices and metadata interoperability.

Some experiences & lessons learned
Open data is not (foremost) a technical thing•Mindset, methods, mandate
Start quickly with what you have•“Raw data now” vs. “let’s wait for 2 years until our systems and all the data is harmonized”
Focus on ecosystem and community building•Helping data owners and new kind of users to collaborate and learn from each other is important
