Session Three: Measuring the economic and social costs and benefits of the PSI: Evaluation of the existing approaches and suggestions for future work Parallel sessions (a) and (b)
Presenters: Paul F. Uhlir and Raed Sharif
Rapporteurs: Juan Carlos De Martin and Tilman Merz
To facilitate discussion and to advance the analytical agenda, the workshop will be divided into two parallel sessions, with government representatives and PSI supply-side experts in group (a) and industry representatives and users in group (b).
9:00-12:15
Each session will comprise:
* An overview on different approaches for evaluating the direct and indirect economic and social benefits and costs of access and reuse policies for PSI in the online environment. This will draw on the published literature, the OECD study and on recent analytical work.
* A 90-minute panel discussion addressing questions including:
What are the commonalities and differences among the analytical methods presented in session 2?
What are their main strengths and weaknesses, e.g. their accuracy, comprehensiveness, relevance, validity and reliability?
What are the most effective metrics/indicators to assess particular kinds of information/policies? Are there approaches and metrics/indicators that effectively measure the network effects of the use of PSI online?
What still needs to be known about the application of these methods to the evaluation of public information policies in the online environment?
What theoretical frameworks, models and best practices in other areas can be applied to assess different policies of access to and reuse of digital PSI?
What are some future directions and recommendations for the better study and measurement of access to and reuse of PSI online?
Following the break, the main points from the panel discussions will be summarized by the rapporteurs (Juan Carlos de Martin and Tilman Merz), followed by discussion. This will be designed to identify activities that could enhance understanding of the economic value and effects of different approaches to access to and reuse of online digital PSI.
