Step 1) publish data in open, machine-readable forms ( like World Bank et al has done ) Step 2) aggregate & map various forms of open datasets (web, streams like Twitter,enterprise) into useful open semantic frameworks Step 3) bring more citizen engagement into the process, to invite the public into a dialog about and contribute to the data to in order to shape policy. Citizen DAN is an open source semantic system for aggregating different indicator data concerning local, community well-being. Information sources may include the Web, real-time feeds, government datasets, municipal government information systems, or crowdsourced data. We just completed proof of concept for 1st Canadian city in conjunction with http://www.iisd.org/ a world class sustainability org who works with World Bank. The public unveiling of the current iteration of Citizen DAN will be made June 23 at SemTech 2010 http://semtech2010.semanticuniverse.com/sessionPop.cfm?confid=42&proposalid=2960 The first open source release of the full Citizen DAN baseline system is scheduled by the end of 2010.
