This document discusses Catalonia's open data policy and the new European directive on public sector information reuse. It provides an overview of Catalonia's legal framework for open data, which includes assigning departments to inventory their data and appoint reuse coordinators. It also outlines Catalonia's efforts to encourage open data use through mobile apps, publications, transparency portals, and economic activity like new map services. The new EU directive aims to standardize open data policies across member states within two years.

New EU strategic context
Digital agenda for Europe
-Strategy for intelligent, sustainable and
inclusive growth in Europe.
-Achieving high levels of employment, moving towards a low carbon
economy, increasing social cohesion and productivity through
concrete actions on a State-wide or Community-wide scale.
-In 1 of the 7 emblematic initiatives for Europe 2020, ICTs play a very
important role in achieving the 2020 objectives.
-Action 3: Opening up public data resources so they can be reused.
-In addition to the economic value, it is worth pointing out more
democratic merits such as promoting transparency and ensuring
public authorities can be held to account for their actions.

New European legal framework
- On 26th
June 2013, the European Parliament
approved Directive 2013/37/EU of the European Parliament
and the Council (Consolidated Version) which
amended Directive 2003/98/EC on the reuse of
information in the public sector. It was published in
the Official Journal of the EU on 27 June.
-Member states have 2 years to convey the
measure into their judicial framework.
Changes
Within the pertinent ambit (museums, libraries
and archives), conditions (standard and open formats, licences without
conditions), fees (charges can be made if they are proportional), exclusivity
limits, supervision (a report every 3 years) and assessment (harmonisation
guides) of the European Commission.

Catalonia Legal framework
Within the Generalitat of Catalonia this applies to:
-Legal Notice (Licence) which authorises the reuse of all the contents
of Gencat.cat.
-Inventory of all the data. Each department (ministry) draws up an
inventory or catalogue of all their data and appoints a
person responsible for the reuse of, or open access to, data.
-Openly accessible images and videos. The Generalitat has opened
access to images and videos as if they were data (source, not
authorship).
-Linking reuse policies to transparency policies. The Generalitats
transparency website also offers data in an open format (
see some examples).

Catalonia Pending features
These include the following:
-Fees. At the moment, there are none. However, these might be
established, in line with the Directive, but would be limited to the cost
of return on investment or to getting back production costs.
-Impartial authority. The Spanish
state will need to decide who this
is.
-Governance in the Spanish state.
How will the reports for
the European Commission
be prepared?
