2026/03/27 – Typology of Data Uses: A tool to capture consistent, actionable insights into the uses of data – Make Data Count
“The development of practices and policies in support of data sharing has resulted in a growing number of open outputs being published every year. This has been followed by an increasing interest in understanding how open research objects are used, and efforts to track open science practices. An example of this is the Open Science Monitoring Initiative (OSMI), which has produced a list of monitoring efforts including for instance the national monitoring frameworks implemented in France and Japan.”

“Open Science activities have advanced considerably across the research landscape. Yet, without consistent monitoring, those activities often remain isolated and receive little recognition from key stakeholders. How far have we really come, and how do we connect the dots?
Open Science Monitoring is one way to address these questions. Initiatives such as the Open Science Monitoring Initiative (OSMI) support development of monitoring approaches and frameworks, including promotion of the Principles of Open Science Monitoring. Visualisation of Open Science practices through well-structured dashboards, in particular, can help inform stakeholders about the state of Open Science at various levels: from an institutional, a disciplinary (e.g. the dashboard shown in Figure 1), up to national and international levels.”
