Abstract

Indonesia has had a decade experience of open government data. Promoting transparency and accountability of government processes was initially the major driver for Open Government Data (OGD) in Indonesia. Under the flag of the Open Government Partnership (OGP), economic development, government efficiency, as well as citizen participation became the more prevalent drivers of the implementation of open government principles.

Agung Indrajit is a Ph.D. candidate at TU Delft, the Netherlands. He was previously active in Spatial Data Infrastructure and Open Spatial Data in Indonesia.
