Linked Open Data Star Scheme
While writing quite a bit lately about Big Data marketplaces, I thought it would be worth mentioning Tim Berners-Lee 5-start deployment scheme for Linked Open Data:
- make your stuff available on the Web (whatever format) under an open license
- make it available as structured data (e.g., Excel instead of image scan of a table)
- use non-proprietary formats (e.g., CSV instead of Excel)
- use URIs to identify things, so that people can point at your stuff
- link your data to other data to provide context
