Open data is an online resource comprised of all publicly available documents produced by the community, regional, or national administration. To qualify as ‘open,’ the data must be in a format that is non-exclusive or subject to copyright, is taken directly from a source and is not a composite of other research, and does not compromise valid privacy concerns. The concept of open governments providing open data is a relatively fresh phenomenon that has been significantly advanced by the internet. However, some national governments have different legal definitions of what proprietary data is.
