Abstract
The purpose is to analyze the licensing of Open Government Data (OGD). The problem is that different regimes of regulation of OGD in Europe create extra barriers for re-using OGD. The survey investigated OGD portals around the world and found out which different regulation regimes are applied on datasets and what the most popular licenses are. Compatibility of the leading licenses and legal notices and case analysis of Italy, Lithuania and UK is presented. This paper is organized: (1) definitions, principles and methodology; (2) results of a survey of the licensing of OGD; (3) analysis of the licenses; (4) case analysis; (5) conclusions and future work.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
