Abstract
The significance of resilience, an attribute that remains underexplored within the context of open data, holds immense potential for shaping long-term advantage in the sustainability. This research aims to underscore the importance of incorporating resilience considerations in the establishment and sustenance of ecosystems specifically designed to foster open government data. Through a case study conducted in Taiwan, this paper showcases the integration of an ecosystem and platform model, facilitating a more resilient and sustainable Open Government Data (OGD) system, particularly attuned to adaptative responses in the face of systemic shocks and crises. This paper emphasizes the critical role of a supportive ecosystem, a well-designed open data platform, and a user-friendly interface in realizing the full potential of open government data and open data initiatives. These interconnected factors necessitate careful consideration and strategic development to achieve successful outcomes. By (1) presenting a case study of Taiwan to exemplify the fusion of OGD ecosystem and platform models, and (2) offering insights into the design of an OGD ecosystem from a resilience perspective, this paper contributes to the existing literature. This holistic approach allows for the integration of diverse perspectives, stakeholders, and knowledge sources, fostering resilience and adaptability within the OGD landscape.
