Sažetak
The paper describes how users in a small transitional country perceive open government data. It discusses the objectives of opening government data to the public, considers what end- users require, and investigates impediments to end-user’s adoption of open data. The results reveal the following: end-users are generally unprepared to use open data ; they have no confidence in the credibility of published data ; end users do not differentiate between open data and private data ; they are not familiar with the purpose of open data and opportunities arising from using them. Finally, the paper discusses possible government measures to boost open data usage. The following measures are proposed: a single open data portal should be organized ; data suppliers should be stimulated to publish, certify and maintain their open data ; and end-users should be encouraged to use the data.
