690 ITU‐T's Technical Reports and Specifications and participation7 in combination with the emphasis on information technology factors such as machine‐processable, non‐proprietary and license‐free8. On the other hand, openness as a concept is wider due to the emphasis on information technology usage and innovation. Open scientific data (OSD) is the other important part of open data that came much before the inclusion of than OGD. The concept of open access to scientific data was institutionally established with the formation of the World Data Center system9 10, which was established by the International Council of Scientific Unions (now the International Council for Science) to minimize the risk of data loss as well as to maximize data accessibility, and further recommending that data be made available in machine‐readable format11 12. Additionally, in 2004, the Science Ministers of nations of the Organization for Economic Co‐operation and Development (OECD), signed a declaration which essentially states that all publicly funded archive data should be made publicly available13 14. In 2007, the OECD Principles and Guidelines for Access to Research Data from Public Funding was also published as a soft‐law recommendation15. Open Industrial Data (OID) resulted from recent initiatives, including: i) Vision 202016: This is New York City's Comprehensive Waterfront Plan, which is led by the Department of City Planning of New York City. It sets the stage for expanded use of the waterfront for parks, housing and economic development, as well as waterways for transportation, recreation and natural habitats. ii) North Shore 2030: This initiative involves improving and reconnecting the North Shore's Unique and Historic Assets, and reviewing the city's industrial policies, including those relevant for Industrial Business Zones (IBZs) and Significant Maritime and Industrial Areas (SMIAs). Another component of open data is open enterprise data (OED) which is best described as a way of doing business, forging strong relationships with the network of other organizations, customers, and potential customers. Alibaba, the China largest online B2C and B2B company, initiated Open Data Partnership Projects is an OED. In this project, ten open data partners are selected and desensitized online transaction data are open to these partners to innovate new applications. ____________________ 7 Committee on Scientific Accomplishments of Earth Observations from Space, National Research Council (2008).
