Framework for open data mining in e-government

Abstract

Data mining in e-government is the process of translating data from government web site in useful knowledge that can provide various types of support in decision making. Data mining can be applied to any type of data, but we have chosen to use this technique on open government data. Open data is a new concept in the development of e-government. It stands for a public sector information which is available for distribution and usage without any restrictions. In this paper we will give an overview of a framework for open data mining and present an example of usage of this framework for data mining on government open data portals.

Utilization of open government data: A systematic literature review of types, conditions, effects and users

“…Data analytics allow users to utilize released public data more productivelyfor instance, to create visualizations that are important for discovering and understanding complex datasets [44]. According to the literature, the development of big data analytics in the public sector may offer opportunities for predictions and forecasting by combining and analyzing government data [19,28]. Furthermore, several studies investigate data analytics as a tool for different fields of study, including utilizing transportation data for public transportation services [8], conducting environmental impact analysis [45], and studying early childhood development [46].…”

“…The type of utilization covers the various ways in which practitioners employ OGD. For instance, open data can be utilized as a research tool [16], in hackathons [17,18], or in data analytics [8,19]. It is important to analyze these types according to how they influence the effects of OGD.…”
