On the basis of Open Data and Geodata, more and more modern products and services are created in Europe and in the world. Using them in practice is also one of the main pillars of urban labs. The debate on Open Data and Geodata is still evolving. The best open government applications seek to empower citizens, to help small businesses or to create value in some other positive, constructive way. Opening government data is only a way-point on the road to improve education, improve government and build tools to solve other real world problems. The benefits of Open Data are diverse and range from improved efficiency of public administrations, economic growth in the private sector to wider social welfare. Open Data must be used to have value. Hence, making data usable is the core component of a successful Open Data initiative. The workshops will give the opportunity to discuss about the above issues.
