“…Open data marketplaces enable transactions by providing social and technical structures that can be reused to lower costs involved with barriers for exchanging data, knowledge and experience [7]. These costs are mainly non-monetary and instead involves time, access and learning [24,35]. The underlying premise behind the formation of open data marketplaces is that by addressing barriers for trade, interactions will increase and the ecosystem will become more sustainable.…”

Open data marketplaces have emerged as a mode of addressing open data adoption barriers. However, knowledge of how such marketplaces affect digital service innovation in open data ecosystems is limited. This paper explores their value proposition for open data users based on an exploratory case study. Five prominent perceived values are identified: lower task complexity, higher access to knowledge, increased possibilities to influence, lower risk and higher visibility. The impact on open data adoption barriers is analyzed and the consequences for ecosystem sustainability is discussed. The paper concludes that open data marketplaces can lower the threshold of using open data by providing better access to open data and associated support services, and by increasing knowledge transfer within the ecosystem.

Citizen Factors of the open government data are being explored in this study in the selected Asian countries. As per the open data availability countries have been selected on global open data index and well-structured open government data portals of Asian countries. To identify and analyze the differences of selected Asian countries through the principals of open government data which are eight in number, analysis the portal activities and observed the Open government data benefits. In analysis, the datasets of selected countries have been analyzed for the purpose of defining the portal activities. These activities include the Visitants, Suppliers, Applications, Developments, generation of Knowledge and overall resources utilization. Open government data of these countries are examined through web contented analysis, in order to understand the open government data's status. This study also describes different challenges on how adoption, promotion and acceptance of the open government data and portals have been carried out by Asian countries. Moreover, there are some recommendations according to the key problems and status in the open government data initiatives. Also, the study has limitations regarding the number of countries and future directions emphasize the need for Open Government Data analysis in less developed countries also. Keywords-Transparency; accountability; portal activities; adoption; principals of open government data which are eight in number; benefits of open government data; recommendations I.

“…In order to increase the utilization of open data on the portal by the public, such institutions have contributed to these efforts by creating open data mobile and web applications that present useful content based on aggregated and synthesized open data for easy utilization by grassroots communities. This notion is known as intermediary intervention [1], [2]. These applications broadly improve citizen access to government data and information [3], [4].…”

Technology intermediary applications have been built as intervention measures to extend the benefits of open data to the public, particularly to grassroots communities. This paper discusses existing barriers that may limit the impact of such applications in society by presenting a suggested framework to be considered when developing open data applications in developing country contexts such as Kenya's. This includes the need for raising awareness of the interventions, community feedback, technology usability and, a consideration for content generated in these applications.
