Open Data Institute. Open Government Data: The Book, by Joshua Tauberer (2012) Interconnecting scientific assets! Tomi Kauppinen Linked Open Science relies heavily on Linked Open Data technologies.
Linked Data allows sharing and use of data, ontologies and various metadata standards: in fact, a common envision is that it will be de facto standard for providing metadata, and the data itself on the Web. At LinkedScience.org we proceed in showing what does it mean to open and publish scientific data as Linked Data in order to enable reproducible, transparent and transdisciplinary research.
Another argument is that to analyze complex systems such as environmental systems there is an urgent need to share and publish research data. This is needed because it enables other researchers to interconnect their data to the published ones.
