Re: [public-ocds] Open Contracting Data Standard - Draft Data Model

[Mathieu Carlier]

Dear Michael,

I did not seem to find mentions of Linked Data in the Open Contracting Data Model document (apologies if i missed something). Will the Data Standard include Linked Data or how to link to other datasets?

Best Regards,

Hi, 

This is the first release of the Open Contracting Data Standard for broad consultation. In this release we would like to present our draft Data Model for Public Procurement. It presents a high-level overview of the structure of the Data Standard. This version has been designed for public procurement contracts.

The purpose of this consultation is to obtain feedback from the Open Contracting community on this draft Data Model before creating specific field names, reference lists, and file formats.

You can find links to the Data Model document here: http:ocds.open-contracting.org/standard/

You can share your comments in two ways:

• inline comments on the document; and

• the OCDS mailing list - if you have more general comments that don't fit well as inline comments,, then please do join our mailing list and start a discussion with your thoughts.

During the consultation process the document will be continually updated as comments are received until July 15, 2014.

Throughout this document there are specific questions for consultation included, but you are not limited to responding to these questions, we welcome all input you can offer.

The Open Contracting Data Standard is a core product of the Open Contracting Partnership (OCP). Version 1.0 of the standard is being developed for the OCP by the World Wide Web Foundation, through a project supported by The Omidyar Network and the World Bank ».

Cheers,

Michael

Hi Mathieu,

We are definitely exploring linked data and keen to join up with related standards. You’ll see more detail related to this as we serialize the data standard.

Cheers,

Michael
