• Too expensive• There’s no business case• There’s no commercial value• It’s private• It’s secret• It’s not ours, and we don’t know who’s data it is• No idea what the quality of the data is• We don’t know where to find it• It’s not our job• It isn’t in the right format• I am not authorised • People are going to misuse it• Image damage for the minister• We not ready for this• Image loss for Government• The data file is too big• Not enough bandwidth• This is a first step • We can’t find it, we have no access• It is out of date / too old• We have it on paper• We don’t know if it’s legal• Management says no• We never did this before• Who is going to use this anyway
![Page 21: Data days 2014 open data in vlaanderen 1](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051816/5474af9db4af9fc80a8b57cd/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• No value in it• No time / no resources• We will open up (but adapt 90%)• It’s incorrect• Commercially sensitive• It is dangerous when linked• People are going to make the wrong conclusions• This is going to start a wrong discussion• We can’t say whether we have it or we don’t• We know the data is wrong, and people will tell us where it is wrong, then we'd waste
resources inputting the corrections people send us• Our IT suppliers will charge us a fortune to do an ad hoc data extract• Our website cannot hold files this large• it's not ours and we don't have authorisation from the data owner• We've already published the data (but it's unfindable/unusable)• People may download and cache the data and it will be out of date when they reuse it• We don't collect it regularly• Too many people will want to download it, which will cause our servers to fail• People would get upset• It’s very sensitive information• We are not ready for this• Tell us who is going to use it and we will make it open• Etc..

Our future plans can be summerised as such:
1. We are going to keep working on quality. The quality of everything we do, the quality of the datasets, the quality of our platform, and so on and so forth..
2. The service we offer to our partners and customers, be it internal organisations at the Flemish, be it citizins, businesses or otherwise..
3. Reliability. People need to be able to rely on us, rely on the availability of the datasets, a single point of contact, constant attention to detail.

CHALLENGES
![Page 24: Data days 2014 open data in vlaanderen 1](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051816/5474af9db4af9fc80a8b57cd/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Some of our challenges:
1.The quality of our datasets2.Licensing: proper usage of licensing of Public data is
essential. The more Open Data activities continue, the clearer this rule becomes. What distinguishes Open Data from "mere" transparency is reuse
3.Privacy issues4.Continued co-operation amongst open data actors and
open data champions instead of competing against each other
5.Hoping that organizations working with open data or facilitating open data efforts are going to work with us instead of agains us
6.Keeping entities from building their own applications7.Finding the necessary budget under present economical
conditions
