Final review stage for the Global Open Data Index 2015 - come and comment!

@Mor, I cannot see the comment box, too. Hope the reviewers could find the following comments.

Have we come to an agreement regarding the availability issue when the sign up process is needed to use Web APIs? If we consider those APIs requiring registration publicly available, then the following datasets in South Korea should be also considered machine-readable via Web APIs:

  • Procurement tenders
  • Water quality
  • Weather forecast

@nealbastek, I think the weather forecast dataset of South Korea should be marked as publicly available but not openly licensed, and it’s available for free on the Website. Why did you think it’s not publicly available, not machine-readable, and unsure if it’s free?

And, the land ownership dataset of South Korea IS online, even if it’s not publicly available and requiring some browser plug-ins. Do we consider datasets requiring browser plugins (including Active X applications) not online?

Thank you for the reviews!
