A GEO VIII plenáris ülésen az adatpolitikáról elhangzott előadás HUNAGI referálására válaszként Dr. Anne Fitzerald a Queenslandi Állami Egyetem Jogi Karának profeszora beszámolt az elmúlt 12 hónap ausztráliai eredményeiről is. Leveléből idézek:

"There has been quite significant progress in Australia over the last 12 months or so, with several reports on economic issues as well as very significant uptake of standardised, open licensing practices (with Creative Commons licences now being very extensively applied through the public sector - government, research and education).

For those who might be interested in our recent presentations and consultations (in Australia and overseas) I upload our materials to our websites www.aupsi.org and creativecommons.org.au

 In particular, the presentations and videos of presenters at our Open Government Data conference held at QUT on 23 September 2011 are available here: http://creativecommons.org.au/OGDbrisbane"

Fitzgerald asszony egyben a LAPSI projekt munkájának is aktív részese és remélhetően a varsói LAPSI műhelyt követően a januári brüsszeli, majd márciusi budapesti tematikus szemináriumon is módja lesz részt venni.

I. Public Conference: January 23rd and 24th. 

The LAPSI 2^nd Public Conference on-line registration is available at: http://lapsi-conf02.eventbrite.com/. Feel free to register at your convenience.

The draft version of the meeting program is available at: http://www.lapsi-project.eu/bruxellesprog 

We are trying to finalize the program in the shortest delay. Of course, I will keep you posted on this matter.
I have already asked to some of the partners to cover the expenses of one or two external speakers. I have already received some positive feedback and I thank the partners that help the overall organization by contributing in such a way. However, some external speakers remain unsponsored. Therefore I would ask you if there is any volunteer to cover the travel, accomodation and meals expenses of one (or two) invited speakers. In case, feel free to tell me at your earliest convenience. 

II. Public Conference and Award: Advertising

The LAPSI Coordinator is advertising the LAPSI public conference and the LAPSI award via several sound boxes, such as the local newspaper La Stampa, the Torino Law School press office, several mailing lists (Nexa, OKF, SharePSI, OpenGov, Internet Governance, WIPO LLM, Euopendata). 

Some days ago I sent you a personal e-mail with a short post on the public conference and the award that may be disseminated for advertising purposes. Many of you have already indicated how they are disseminating this post. I really thank you for the collaboration so far. However, please let me encourage you to keep disseminating this post (and inform me on any further dissemination initiative). This is of essence not only for the success of public conference, but particularly for the LAPSI award (so far we have a very limited number of applications and we do count on your initiative for receiving as many aapplications as possible). 

III. Website.
As you know, my colleague Claudio is constantly taking care of the content of the LAPSI website. He recently improved the page "Members" where he introduced the logo of each and every LAPSI partner. Please have a look at it: http://www.lapsi-project.eu/members. Should you send him a thumbnail pictureof the involved resourses as well, this would help him a lot in improving the overall layout of our website. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

EU Digitális Menetrend helyi szinten - LAPSI beszámoló olasz nemzeti és helyi kormányzatok palermói találkozójáról

Mai postánkból. Raimondo Lemma írja a LAPSI projektlevelezésben:

"A quick update on the Palermo session of "Digital Agenda Going Local" - jointly organized by the European Commission and Italian national and local authorities - which I attended yesterday on behalf of Nexa and the Lapsi Network. The workshop was aimed at assessing the current achievements and the remaining challenges with respect to the Digital Agenda key objectives, especially at local level.

I participated into a panel focused on the Open Data (PSI) implementation processes, together with representatives from Italian bodies and the EC as well.  

We were informed that further insights on the foreseen modifications of the PSI Directiveshould be released rather soon. Moreover, the EU open data portal is to be released by Spring 2012. It is also planned to use such portal as a platform that federates the National portals (by 2013). Moreover, the forthcoming Horizon 2020 programme will cover specific themes regarding Open Data. 

I had the chance to present LAPSI as a European network of researchers and institutions providing policy support on the key legal aspects of PSI. Furthermore, I highlighted the role of the regional dimension of PSI (using Piedmont and Italy as examples) with two complementary trends: regulatory competition (valorisation of the distinctive advantages of regions) and cooperation based on best practices, also exploiting network effects (each time a new region opens up data the value of the datasets already provided by first movers is increased).

Here's the programme of the workshop: http://ec.europa.eu/information_society/events/cf/daelocal/item-display.cfm?id=7031&lang=en  "

LAPSI 2. Nyílvános Konferencia és PSI portálverseny eredményhírdetés

The LAPSI Thematic Network is currently organizing its 2^nd Public Conference that will take place in Bruxelles, on 23^rd and 24^th January 2012.

The two-day meeting will give the opportunity to publicly present the state of the art of the LAPSI policy recommendations on Public Sector Information (PSI) re-use. The featured policies focus on some of the major legal topics involved with the re-use of PSI; in particular, intellectual property rights issues, privacy, data protection and personal data treatment, competition law aspects.

The LAPSI members will discuss their policies together with external discussants and experts in the field of PSI, as well as with stakeholders and citizens who want to broaden their knowledge around the topics of PSI and Open Data.

In addition to the scheduled activites, the winner of the 3^rd LAPSI Award on the most user-friendly design of a PSI portal in the EU will be announced during the second day of the Public Conference.

Since PSI availability is crucial for fostering re-use initiatives, the very purpose of the Award is to support any initiative which can be beneficial to PSI re-use policies for moving forward.

The Award is open to public sector bodies, businesses and citizens who designed or manage a PSI portal in the EU.

A panel of experts will evaluate the submitted projects with regard to the user-friendly design of the portal; the originality and the layout appeal of the portal; the efficacy of the portal in facilitating the access of the PSI; the efficacy of the portal in fostering the awareness on legal aspects of PSI (such as competition, data protection and privacy, intellectual property rights).

The Award has received the support of Infocamere (http://www.infocamere.it/) and as a result, the most user-friendly design of a PSI portal will be rewarded with a prize of 1,000 Euros.

Térbeli adatok, térinformációk elérhetősége - helyzetismertetés

HUNAGI tagjai és partnerei részéről igény merült fel a térbeli adatok és tematikus térinformációk elérhetőségével kapcsolatban.

A hamarosan megnyíló HUNAGI honlap tartalomkezelő rendszere lehetőséget biztosít arra, hogy minden regisztrált HUNAGI tag, HUNAGI partner INSPIRE adatkörökhöz tartozóan megadhassa a szolgáltatott térbeli adat vagy tematikus térinformáció megnevezését, a szolgáltatás webes elérhetősége URL címét, a kapcsolattartó nevét, intézménye/szervezete megnevezését.

Mindez természetesen nem  helyettesítheti vagy pótolja a geoportálok szerepét, célja csupán az érdeklődők eligazítása az adatgazdák és/vagy szolgáltatók irányában, összhangban a HUNAGI SDIC szerepével.

Barkóczi Zsolt HUNAGI elnök megkeresésére Dr. Mihály Szabolcs INSPIRE tagállami kapcsolattartó  helyzetismertetést adott a kérdéssel kapcsolatban. Ez a HUNAGI SDIC blog legutóbbi bejegyzésében található.

Fejezze ki egyetértését, észrevételeit vagy ellenvéleményét a Gyöngyösi Állásfoglalással kapcsolatban!

Kákonyi Gáborral, Dr. Takács András Attillával történt egyeztetést követően a HUNAGI Naplóban is közzétesszük az idei gyöngyösi Fény-Tér-Kép Konferencia résztvevőinek Állásfoglalását abból a célból, hogy ahhoz  HUNAGI tagjai, partnerei és a HUNAGI Napló olvasói csatlakozhassanak, azzal kapcsolatban véleményt formálhassanak, netalán ellenvéleményüket fejezzék ki.

Az FTK Konferencia Állásfoglalása itt olvasható: http://www.hunagi.hu/G/doc/GyöngyösiÁllásfoglalás.pdf

Csatlakozás az Állásfoglaláshoz vagy hozzájárulás különvélemény, megjegyzés megadásával itt lehetséges:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dG9mZ2puOUV2aEpGWG42VjZrLXNUdlE6MQ

A közérdekű adatok széleskörű hozzáférhetőségének szorgalmazása  egybevág a HUNAGI jó másfél  évtizede vállalt küldetésével. A PSI irányelv megvalósításával összhangban HUNAGI résztvevője volt az ePSIplus programnak és konzorciumi tagja az EU 7FP LAPSI projektjének. A 3. HUNAGI Konferencia terv szerint a LAPSI projekt Adatpolitika - liszencmodellek műhelynek és a mobil térinformatikai alkalmazásoknak szentelve kerül megrendezésre 2012 március 22-23-án. 

Megjegyzés: Alapértelmezésben a hozzáférhetőség még nem azonos az ingyenességgel!

Az október 23-i tárgybeli körlevélben foglaltakat pontosítva, HUNAGI vállalása ebben a kontextusban arra irányul, hogy a már korábban megkezdett kormányzati kommunikáció során felhasználjuk a felmérés eredményét, különös tekintettel a felelősség rendezésére és az érintettek együttműködési fórumának megteremtése érdekében.

Hack4Transparency

Mai postánkból. Cristiana Sappa LAPSI projekt menedzser jóvoltából kaptuk meg Daniel Dietrich (The Open Knowledge Foundation www.okfn.org - www.opendefinition.org) alábbi levelét: “Dear #H4T Supporters Could we please ask you to distribute this e-mail message below to your mailing list(s)? Help us to get applicants from as many Member States as possible, we would like to have a nice representation from all over Europe! Many thanks in advance! Best, Herman We would like to draw your attention to a hackathon being organised in Brussels on 8-9 November 2011 within the premises of the European Parliament – focused on transparency. All the info is available at http://www.euhackathon.eu The EUhackathon revolves around two tracks, of which each winner or winning team will be awarded a 3.000,00 euro prize. Deadline for application is 10 October 2011. Apply here: http://www.euhackathon.eu/call4apps/form/ Selected applicants will be invited to come to Brussels for 2 days, their travel and accommodation costs being taken care of by the EUhackathon organisers, courtesy of its sponsors. Oh, and there’s free food! 1. Internet Quality Track This track is about understanding the quality of service delivered by mobile operators to users in Europe. The expectation is that the participants develop innovative and user-friendly multi-platform interfaces to an existing network measurement tool allowing users to know the quality of connection they are getting. The code at the basis of this tool should be the NDT and Glasnost open-source codes available at M-Lab. A special page has been put up by M-Lab for the hackathon here: http://measurementlab.net/euhackathon Global Transparency Track This track focuses on the accessibility of information on the Internet. The purpose is to use the data made available by the Google Transparency Report or other sources like Twitter and research undertaken by groups like, for example, the OpenNet Initiative and Herdict to create new visualisations showing the consequences of censorship and barriers to the free flow of information online, and ensuring users and policy makers get a fuller picture how the Internet is shaped by laws and other government actions. Hope that some of you will be inspired and apply to come and Hack4Transparency!”
