  1. Open Data 24.10.12

  2. Data: Social Sciences & Humanities • Numerical data for scholarly research: Economics, Sociology, Political Economy, Economic History &c. • Qualitative: coded data, cases, images. • The Data Deluge • ‘Free Our Data’ • Indexing of ‘Big Data’ • Personal data

  3. Propensity towards Open Data • Data from research projects • Data from individual scholars • Macro data (ECB, W.B., states) • Micro-socioeconomic data • Financial data • HFDF

  4. Data from research projects • Institutionally-generated, large/medium scale projects (usually with an original survey component); also retro-scanned data • EUDO, DReMM • Data from individual scholars • Related to publications: Elaboration of macro and micro sources; smaller surveys & fieldwork • Theses, articles, WPs, monographs

  5. Access, Networks and Archives • National archives: SURF, UKDS • Discipline/cluster archives: NBER • Multi-disciplinary: Dataverse, Nesstar • Journal archives: Econometrica, PloS • Local institutional data repositories • EUI Data Portal

  6. OD dissemination for publication-related datasets: Benefits • Access • Data methodology & instruction • Cross-referencing with publications

  7. OD dissemination for publication-related datasets: Some caveats. • Dated data / newer data resides at source • Data not sufficiently elaborated • Discourse ‘echo’

  8. An Institutional Data Repository • University of Edinburgh

  9. EUI Data beta consultation • Join the data list • Feedback via the Data Portal
