b'When I published a LinkedIn post on Croatian open data last summer and how we use the PostgreSQL based Aranei as a data processing and profiling tool, I could not have imagined the snowball effect turning into an avalanche of reactions that was triggered by that post. Open Data is obviously a topic many people and organizations have many insights on and opinions about.\\nThe result of a relatively modest import of Croatian open data sources into our Aranei data management platform resulted in an international group of interested and helpful people. After many considerations and many more conversations, we feel that it is actually part of a triad of concepts that need to be treated holistically.\\nOpen data cannot exist without open standards, and open standards are connected to open-source software. Open-source software is part of the technology stack for publishing open data, and there we have a nice circle.\\nUsing our fully open source stack of Aranei, consisting of PostgreSQL, PHP Symfony framework / API platform, React-Admin and many more free software components, we\\u2019ve visualized and contextualized the Open Datasets from the Croatian government, showing how much more insights can be gained about the data when normalized and correlated properly.\\nWe decided to turn our experience into a movement, called OpenDataConnected. Here we\\u2019re connecting the open data publishers, with the advocates and evangelists, and with the eventual organizations that use those open datasets.\\nWe\\u2019ve reflect on some of the findings on our experiences with the Zagreb/Croatian open data, we want to work together with this community on how to define value propositions from those datasets and most important we want to have an open conversation with you, OpenDataConnected participants on which topics are of interest to you for the next couple of months.\\nOn our annual DORS/CLUC conference in May in Zagreb, we will then have a fully inclusive OpenDataConnected track to bring all those pieces together!\\n\\n\\nWhen I published a LinkedIn post on Croatian open data last summer and how we use the PostgreSQL based Aranei as a data processing and profiling tool, I could not have imagined the snowball effect turning into an avalanche of reactions that was triggered by that post.
