BANDUNG, itb.ac.id - The Artificial Intelligence Center of the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) and the Center of Knowledge for Business Competitiveness SBM ITB held a Webinar Series Smart City in Indonesia, Thursday, May 14, 2020. The webinar invited several speakers, one of whom was Dr. techn. Wikan Danar Sunindyo, a lecturer at the School of Electrical Engineering and Informatics (STEI) ITB, who is also a mentor for the movement towards 100 Smart Cities of the Ministry of Communication and Information for Mimika Regency, Bantul Regency, Kulonprogo Regency, Sragen Regency.
.Open Data "It is public data that can be accessed and used by the public, companies, and organizations to launch new businesses, analyze patterns and trends, make data-based decisions, and solve complex problems," said Dr. Wikan when explaining his material on Open Data For Smart City.
Dr. Wikan menjelaskan, skala penyebaran Open Data It is divided into five categories: One-Star data is data that is available on the web in any format and has an open license. An example is population data in PDF format. Two-Star data is structured data that is machine-readable, meaning it can be processed in a special application (propietary). "For example, there is data in Excel that can only be processed in Excel," he said.
Next is Three Stars, which is structured data that machine-readable but in the format non-proprietary, meaning it can be opened in other applications. For example, files in .csv or .txt format. Four Star, using open standard from W3C (RDF and SPARQL) to identify something. Five Star, is data that can be linked to other data to provide context.
According to him, the system Open Data This can also be used to build systems Open Government which also consists of four aspects. "The first aspect is transparency, which is the government's responsibility to release data regarding operations within its institutions. The second aspect is participation, which means accepting input from the public. The collaboration aspect is involving the public in finding solutions. And finally, the government as a platform, which means the government releases data on issues of public concern, such as health, the environment, and industry," explained Dr. Wikan.
He continued, Open Government Data must also adhere to several principles, including that the available data must be complete, primary, have a clear timeframe, be accessible, be able to be processed, be non-discriminatory, or only be permitted for certain parties, non-propietary (not owned by a particular party), and the last one is free.
Dr. Wikan also outlined the key reasons why Open Government Data is needed. First, it has the advantage of increasing public trust and enhancing public participation. Second, it can generate rapid responses to rapidly changing issues. Third, it can improve public relations, and finally, it facilitates... smart cities. “Open government partnership in Indonesia, it started during the era of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, which was previously managed by UKP4, currently the area has been used as a pilot project for smart cities are DKI Jakarta, Bandung City, and Bojonegoro Regency," he explained.
Currently, thousands of these data can be accessed at https://data.jakarta.go.id/, http://data.bandung.go.id/, https://siipp.net/Home, which are expected to be utilized by researchers, journalists, academics, the general public, and the private sector for decision-making and visualization purposes. "Data for Indonesia itself is also currently being developed at data.go.id and there is also the One Data Indonesia Forum which aims to standardize, synchronize data, and ensure cross-data interoperability," he said.
Dr. Wikan hopes that this synergy between Indonesian data will strengthen each other and help simplify regulatory and institutional arrangements. In closing, he also encouraged the regional governments attending the webinar to begin using a single data system in accordance with the SPBE (Electronic-Based Government System) and Presidential Regulation No. 39 of 2019 concerning One Data.
