Evaluation of Users’ Participation in Value Co-creation of Open Government Data Platform

Abstract

During the covid-19 epidemic, open government data (OGD) has become the focus of the world, and users’ participation in value co-creation of open government data platform(OGDP) will help to release the value of data. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the outcome of users’ participation in value co-creation of OGDP, then it follows analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to construct a hierarchical model from three perspectives, government to users, users to government, users to users, which totally includes 7 dimensions and 22 criteria. TOPSIS is used to rank effect of users’ participation in value co-creation of 4 OGDPs. Finally, it puts forward some suggestions for open government data platform, such as data reuse, promoting cross-border cooperation of government data, and encouraging users to become co-creators of the platform.
