Creative Commons (CC) is a non-profit organization devoted to expanding the range of creative works available for others to build upon legally and to share. The organization has released several copyright-licenses known as Creative Commons licenses free of charge to the public. These licenses allow creators to communicate which rights they reserve, and which rights they waive for the benefit of recipients or other creators. An easy-to-understand one-page explanation of rights, with associated visual symbols, explains the specifics of each Creative Commons license. Creative Commons licenses do not replace copyright, but are based upon it. They replace individual negotiations for specific rights between copyright owner (licensor) and licensee, which are necessary under an "all rights reserved" copyright management, with a "some rights reserved" management employing standardized licenses for re-use cases where no commercial compensation is sought by the copyright owner. The result is an agile, low-overhead and low-cost copyright-management regime, profiting both copyright owners and licensees. Wikipedia uses one of these licenses.
Data (/ˈdeɪtə/ DAY-tə, /ˈdætə/ DA-tə, or /ˈdɑːtə/ DAH-tə) is a set of values of qualitative or quantitative variables; restated, pieces of data are individual pieces of information. Data is measured, collected and reported, and analyzed, whereupon it can be visualized using graphs or images. Data as a general concept refers to the fact that some existing information or knowledge is represented or coded in some form suitable for better usage or processing.
Raw data, i.e. unprocessed data, is a collection of numbers, characters; data processing commonly occurs by stages, and the "processed data" from one stage may be considered the "raw data" of the next. Field data is raw data that is collected in an uncontrolled in situ environment. Experimental data is data that is generated within the context of a scientific investigation by observation and recording.
The Latin word "data" is the plural of "datum", and still may be used as a plural noun in this sense. Nowadays, though, "data" is most commonly used in the singular, as a mass noun (like "information", "sand" or "rain").
O or OPEN may refer to:
Open data is the idea that some data should be freely available to everyone to use and republish as they wish, without restrictions from copyright, patents or other mechanisms of control. The goals of the open data movement are similar to those of other "open" movements such as open source, open hardware, open content, and open access. The philosophy behind open data has been long established (for example in the Mertonian tradition of science), but the term "open data" itself is recent, gaining popularity with the rise of the Internet and World Wide Web and, especially, with the launch of open-data government initiatives such as Data.gov and Data.gov.uk.
The concept of open data is not new; but a formalized definition is relatively new—the primary such formalization being that in the Open Definition which can be summarized in the statement that "A piece of data is open if anyone is free to use, reuse, and redistribute it – subject only, at most, to the requirement to attribute and/or share-alike."
The Open Database License (ODbL) is a copyleft ("Share Alike") license agreement intended to allow users to freely share, modify, and use a database while maintaining this same freedom for others.
ODbL is published by Open Data Commons, part of the Open Knowledge Foundation.
The OpenStreetMap (OSM) project completed the move from a Creative Commons license to ODbL in September 2012 in an attempt to have more legal security and a more specific license for databases rather than creative works.

On November 4, 2015, Dr. Robert Grossman, Director of the Center for Data Intensive Science and Core Faculty and Senior Fellow at the Institute for Genomics and Systems Biology and the Computation Institute at the University of Chicago, presented “Large Scale Data Commons for Genomic and Clinical Data and the Changing Landscape for Sharing Research Data” to the NCI CBIIT Speaker Series.
The University of Chicago and the National Cancer Institute are collaborating to establish the Genomic Data Commons (GDC). The GDC is a first-of-its-kind facility that will be the most comprehensive system to store data from NCI-funded research programs in a single repository, and harmonize them so they’re compatible. The GDC addresses a major issue in cancer research. A wealth of valuable tumor genome data has been collected by NCI-funded projects, but most researchers can’t make use of the material due to sheer size, disparate formats and dispersed storage locations. By bringing the data together in a single place, in a standardized format, the GDC will dramatically increase access to data for cancer researchers. Not only will this speed up the pace of cancer research, it will open new...

We've all had that moment where someone says something that makes you stop and think. Not necessarily a fact or anything, although it could be, but more like an idea, or a concept. It's that aha moment where you realize something completely obvious but you never really thought about it before in that exact way. For example, did you know that you will be the last person to die in your lifetime? Or how about that for a very brief moment, you were the youngest person in the world out of more than 7 billion people? Those are seemingly obvious things but when you phrase them so succinctly they take on a new form in our brains and really make us think. Of course, not everything on this list is a purely abstract concept. There are a few mind boggling facts that will potentially make you rethink h...

This presentation was recorded at GOTO Aarhus 2013 http://gotocon.com Aslam Khan - African Software Developer by Birth, by Choice, for Life ABSTRACT Social activists respond by organising and technical activists react by inventing. Imagine the possibilities when social and digital activists connect fluidly. Open Data may well be the pallette upon which they blend their worlds. Yet, in itself , Open Data is not enough. We need to transform Open Data into common knowledge. This talk explores the connection between activism and Open Data. I propose the need for Open Analytics to change Open Data into common knowledge - knowledge that can be used by social activists. https://twitter.com/gotocon https://www.facebook.com/GOTOConference http://gotocon.com

Whether you’re new to civic development and you want to learn how to get started, or even a seasoned pro looking to build a business around open data, this webinar will give you the tools you need to succeed. Learn best practices around working with open data, avoid common pitfalls, and find out where to get help when things go wrong. And once you’ve created your killer app, learn how to register for the Socrata Marketplace and distribute your app to our worldwide network of customers.
90 percent of the world’s data has been created in the last two years alone. Yet, all this data doesn’t actually deliver value unless properly applied. Data must be easily accessible by applications and the people who use them—which is the goal of the Open Data Protocol, commonly referred to as OData. Through OData support, Mendix offers a fast, simple way to get more value out of the data in your applications. Within one minute, you can get your Mendix application data into a large number of third-party tools, including Microsoft Excel, Tableau and more, to perform additional analysis and reporting. In this session, we will show how easy it is to get more value out of the data in your Mendix applications with just a few clicks. We will share some tips and tricks for performing data anal...

Abstract: Open in education is associated with a wide range of aspects of education and scholarship including open educational practices, open educational resources, open data, open scholarship and open access. What do these have in common? In what ways are they open at all? What is the nature of the consensus of openness in education? While open education seems to be an uncontested and uncontestable “good”, it is in effect a site of contestation over both meaning and practice. This talk will trouble the concepts of openness in education and illuminate the nature of the debates.
