Abstract

The promises and potential of Big Data in transforming digital government services, governments, and the interaction between governments, citizens, and the business sector, are substantial. From "smart" government to transformational government, Big Data can foster collaboration; create real-time solutions to challenges in agriculture, health, transportation, and more; and usher in a new era of policy- and decision-making. There are, however, a range of policy challenges to address regarding Big Data, including access and dissemination; digital asset management, archiving and preservation; privacy; and security. This paper selectively reviews and analyzes the U.S. policy context regarding Big Data and offers recommendations aimed at facilitating Big Data initiatives.
