This graduation project examines the infrastructural and institutional instruments that may support open research data sharing and re-use in specific research disciplines.

Using a selection of open data models developed in previous research, this graduation project develops hypotheses and quantitatively tests why researchers in the transport domain do (not) openly share their research data. By doing so, this graduation project contributes to open data theory development in a specific context.

The objective of this graduation project is to investigate the effects of data communities set up in different countries and to derive best practices. The project includes the case of data communities set up in the Netherlands by Data.overheid.nl.” The objective of this graduation project is to investigate the effects of specific open government data policy elements proposed or implemented in different countries and to derive best practices.

Informed by and in close collaboration with the TU Delft employees responsible for its open science program (mainly from the TU Delft Library), this graduation project examines the effects of specific aspects of TU Delft’s open science programme.

Using theories such as Resource Based Theory and Resource Dependency Theory, this graduation project examines the influence of resources provided by NGOs on the usability of open government data.” Graag veranderen in: Using literature from various domains, this graduation project examines the influence of resources provided by Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs) on the usability of open government for other actors.
