Status on “Infrastructure for Multilayer Interoperability (IMI)” Project in Japan April 2014 Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry Lessons from the Great East Japan Earthquake (1) 11 March 2011 at 14:46 (JST) Magnitude 9.0 15,883 Deaths and 2,654 Missing (Most victims died due to drowning in a tsunami) Total financial damage of 25 trillion Japanese yen (approx. 175 billion euro) Public demands for the information disclosure have grown Accident at the Fukushima 1 Nuclear Power Plant : Radiation data (SPEEDI) Electricity saving activity : To deal with the shortage of supply of electricity due to the power plant accident, electricity saving target of 15% was set. The government launched an energy saving promotion portal site "setsuden.go.jp" in order to encourage the public cooperate in electricity saving. 1 Lessons from the Great East Japan Earthquake (2) Various issues have emerged Examples: ●Shelter Information ・Information was available only in paper and PDF formats. →Volunteers manually converted into electronic data. ・Address and location information were missing or wrong. Place names were abbreviated by local rules. →Checked one by one and plotted on maps. ・Difficult to find information managed by each local government.→Collected by manpower. ・Information of newly opened or closed shelters was not updated.→Checked one by one. Notices on a bulletin board in a shelter Take photos Post on the Internet to share information ●Radiation Information ・SPEEDI (Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology), Monitoring Post (Ministry of Environment), and local governments provided information individually. →Collected all information by manpower. ・Locations of data were not clear. →Searched various locations by manpower. ・Locations of data changed frequently. →Developers of applications and portal sites modified the programs frequently. 2 Lessons from the Great East Japan Earthquake (3) ITS Japan provided road trafficability and closure information by GIS. Data Provided from: 'Internavi' by Honda 'Smartloop Traffic Information' by Pioneer 'G-BOOK' by Toyota 'Carwings' by Nissan Automobile Traffic Record and Road Closure Information 封鎖 3 Utilisation of Open Data in the Areas of Disaster Recovery Sinsai.info (Reconstruction Support Platform) Provides disaster response information such as shelter information and water supply points.

Public Data Subject to Measures Measures will be taken first with respect to data in the possession of the government (excluding information not suitable for public release such as information relating to security), and the measures will be expanded to independent administrative institutions, local governmental bodies, public utilities, and so on. 3. Collaboration with Private Sectors and Local Governmental Bodies From the perspective of encouraging the use of public data through various means that take advantage of creative innovations, the government will collaborate fully with private sectors and local governmental bodies. 7 Ⅲ. Specific Measures 1. Promoting the Use of Public Data The MIC and the METI will implement trial programs as set forth in (1) through (3) in collaboration with government ministries, independent administrative institutions, local governmental bodies, and private sectors. (1) Identification of Public Data Use Needs By conducting investigations in collaboration with private sectors and holding service development contests and so on, public data use needs will be investigated and analyzed and issues concerning current use will be examined and organised. (2) Examination and Organisation of Issues Relating to Current Data Provision Methods Issues will be examined and organised through trial projects, surveys, and research in order to create the rules necessary for the use of the public data, develop data catalogues, and promote standardisation of data formats and structures. (3) Development of Private Sector Services By conducting investigations in collaboration with private sectors and holding service development contests and so on, examples of service development by private sectors using public data will be accumulated. 8 Ⅲ. Specific Measures 2. Development of Environments for the Use of Public Data The Cabinet Secretariat will obtain the cooperation of relevant ministries and develop the following environments for the use of public data. (1) Creation of Rules Necessary for the Use of Public Data Rules necessary for the use of public data will be created with respect to the handling of copyrights, use conditions, rules on access from machines, allocation of responsibilities between users and providers, and handling of confidential information at the time of disclosure of data by government ministries. (2) Development of Data Catalogues Data catalogues that collect metadata including summaries and data formats will be developed with respect to data that is available for secondary use. (3) Promotion of Standardisation of Data Formats and Structures Standardisation concerning data formats and structures and methods of prevention will be promoted, and manuals and support tools will be developed to enable machine reading, collaboration, and searches among multiple agencies and fields. (4) Consideration of Support to Provider Agencies From the perspective of providing support to agencies that provide public data, issues concerning review to make operational procedures suitable for the provision of public data by provider agencies and related fees will be considered and organised while considering feasible policies. 9 Ⅳ. Implementation Structures Implementation Structures : The Cabinet Secretariat established “Committee of Open Government Data” consisting of public and private sectors as an implementing body of open data policies (1) Consideration of fundamental matters including the development of environments for the use of public data; (2) Consideration of policies to be implemented in the future and adoption of a roadmap; (3) Review and follow-up on policies.
