Abstract

Cross-boundary information sharing has been a thriving research field in e-Government which continues drawing researchers from various disciplines. Recently, open data has become an important policy among the government administrations around the world. Open data initiatives can be considered one type of cross-boundary information sharing between government agencies and the public including businesses, nonprofit organizations, and individuals. While extensive research has been conducted in interagency information sharing, the proposed research intends to explore the open data initiatives in the context of Taiwan e-Government. The result of the research can be compared with those in interagency information sharing and also contribute to the current open data literature from an international perspective.
