19.9.2012
The identified open data value network in Finland
Five value network profiles were identified
19.9.2012
1. Extract & Transform
• Extract and transform as part of data analyzing
– Data extraction and transformation is necessary before any data analysis can be performed
• Extract and transform as separate business
– No commercial activity has yet risen
– Example: pro-bono soRvi toolkit by Louhos shows lots of potential
• Revenue model: none yet

2. Data Analysers
• Data visualizers
– Create novel visualizations combining open data from different sources
– Example: Hahmota taxtree offers unique visualization method
• Algorithm based analysis
– Example : Asiakastieto with 40 M€ revenue
• Revenue model
– Project work
– Transaction based pricing
– Modular ecosystem
– Pro-bono

3. User Experience Provider
• Utilize open data to create an attractive website or a mobile client
– Most popular (7 out of 14 companies)
– Example: Duunitori.fi plots job openings on a map and enriches them with other data sources
• Revenue model
– Advertisements
– One-time fee
– Subscription
– Crowd funded

4. Commercial Data Publisher
• Co-creation with open license
– Example: HSL Reittiopas – ReittiGPS. HSL saves client development and maintenance costs. ReittiGPS gets revenue from selling the application in Appstore.
• Co-creation with restricted license
– Example: The Guardian Open Platform or Google Maps API
– Pricing of the API needs to be well thought to encourage grassroots activity
• Revenue model: cost savings with crowd sourcing

Findings about open data
• Versatile revenue models, especially with user experience providers
• Extract & transform lacks commercial activity
• Standardized APIs and information formats important for the scalability and continuity of the open data business
• The value of raw data is 0 €, without an service adding value to it
