The Sentinel-2 mission is a land monitoring constellation of two satellites that provide high resolution optical imagery and provide continuity for the current SPOT and Landsat missions. The mission provides a global coverage of the Earth's land surface every 5 days, making the data of great use in on-going studies. L1C data are available from June 2015 globally. L2A data are available from November 2016 over Europe region and globally since January 2017.

This is a PDF document created by the Department of Information Technology (DoIT) and the Governor's Office of Performance Improvement to assist training Maryland state employees on use of the Open Data Portal, https://opendata.maryland.gov. This document covers direct data entry, uploading Excel spreadsheets, connecting source databases, and transposing data. Please note that this tutorial is intended for use by state employees, as non-state users cannot upload datasets to the Open Data Portal.

OIT then developed datasets to track these metrics over time and a dashboard to display them visually and in a way accessible to a broad audience of users.For questions about this dataset, contact kistine.carolan@phila.gov.

Context

The Open Data 500, funded by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation (http://www.knightfoundation.org/) and conducted by the GovLab, is the first comprehensive study of U.S. companies that use open government data to generate new business and develop new products and services.

Study Goals

• Provide a basis for assessing the economic value of government open data

• Encourage the development of new open data companies

• Foster a dialogue between government and business on how government data can be made more useful

The Govlab's Approach

The Open Data 500 study is conducted by the GovLab at New York University with funding from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. The GovLab works to improve people’s lives by changing how we govern, using technology-enabled solutions and a collaborative, networked approach. As part of its mission, the GovLab studies how institutions can publish the data they collect as open data so that businesses, organizations, and citizens can analyze and use this information.

Company Identification

The Open Data 500 team has compiled our list of companies through (1) outreach campaigns, (2) advice from experts and professional organizations, and (3) additional research.

Outreach Campaign

• Mass email to over 3,000 contacts in the GovLab network

• Mass email to over 2,000 contacts OpenDataNow.com

• Blog posts on TheGovLab.org and OpenDataNow.com

• Social media recommendations

• Media coverage of the Open Data 500

• Attending presentations and conferences

Expert Advice

• Recommendations from government and non-governmental organizations

• Guidance and feedback from Open Data 500 advisors

Research

• Companies identified for the book, Open Data Now

• Companies using datasets from Data.gov

• Directory of open data companies developed by Deloitte

• Online Open Data Userbase created by Socrata

• General research from publicly available sources

What The Study Is Not

The Open Data 500 is not a rating or ranking of companies. It covers companies of different sizes and categories, using various kinds of data.

The Open Data 500 is not a competition, but an attempt to give a broad, inclusive view of the field.

The Open Data 500 study also does not provide a random sample for definitive statistical analysis. Since this is the first thorough scan of companies in the field, it is not yet possible to determine the exact landscape of open data companies.

Maryland's Open Data Program provides transparency so that businesses, residents, visitors, and civil servants can use state data to aid in decision making. The transparency of data helps improve accountability, as data owners share the responsibility for ensuring that data is accurate, up-to-date and available to the public. Each January, the Council on Open Data makes it's Annual Open Data Report available to the public. Please explore the annual reports below to see how Maryland continues to support Open Data.
