CLAV Platform: a contribution to provide access to Portuguese Public Administration open data Keywords: Public Administration, archives, macro appraisal, functional classification, open data, ontology, CLAV Platform This presentation aims to specify CLAV's requirements, its modeling process and to exploit its data at an Open Administration context; it also aims to present the platform's main features and to reveal how it will promote public administration open data access. The presentation begins with an introduction to European and Portuguese strategies and policies to provide access to open data, regarding open science and public administration, as well as the current digital transformation policies. Such policies tend to promote semantic interoperability and archival information management, with special focus on classification and appraisal, supported by a new legal framework. Among other initiatives, the Portuguese coordination agency for the archival policy has developed a classification and appraisal framework, based on a public administration functional classification and business process list. CLAV is an ontology based electronic platform, developed to implement the use of that business process list, in order to support the creation of business activity structure classification schemes and retention schedules to integrate the organizational information management systems. The data hosted and managed by CLAV is meant to reach a diverse public and will be available in CSV, RDF, OWL, SKOS and XML, through a data API (Application Programming Interface) at Portuguese electronic data dissemination and exchange platforms such as Dados.gov and the e Portugal Portal, the former Portal do Cidadão. CLAV will also be referenced at the European Commission Joinup catalog, a collaborative platform within the ISA2 Programme - Interoperability solutions for public administrations, businesses and citizens. The presentation specifies also the importance of the data made available through CLAV to the implementation of General Data Protection Regulation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
