This document discusses using parliamentary open data to create an interactive service for research and development purposes. It describes various types of parliamentary data that could be used, such as draft laws, reports, and transcripts from meetings. The service would involve structuring unstructured transcript text using suffix trees and visualizing the data through word clouds and word trees. This would allow analysis of word distributions and comparisons over time. The goal is to enable greater transparency, participation, and information sharing with citizens by transforming and aggregating internal parliamentary data sources.

USING PARLIAMENTARY OPEN DATA FOR R&D PURPOSE Mile Grujovski, e-Government technical Lead, Nextsense
PARLIAMENTARY OPEN DATA • Parliamentary activities • Draft laws • Reports • Voting results • Transcript documents from plenary sittings
AN INTERACTIVE SERVICE Word cloud Word tree
TRANSCRIPT DOCUMENTS AS A DATA SOURCE • Text is data • Unstructured textual data – Structuring with suffix trees • Data visualization – Word clouds – Word tree • Prototype service
WORD CLOUD VISUALIZATION • Excellent format for visualization of free form text • Word importance is proportional to the size of the text • Additional aesthetic criteria's

WORD TREE VISUALIZATION • Suffix tree structure • Tree structure is not visible without processing • Dynamically generated trees • Users can navigate deeper in the tree structure • Contextual information is available

DEMO
DISTRIBUTION ANALYSES • Word Distribution – Word Usage for selected period • Comparative Analysis – Distribution of multiple words
STEP FURTHER - MIXING UP DATA • Using multiple data sources – Discussions in the Parliament – Discussions on Social Medias – Online articles • Aggregation of information • Processing of collected data • Data mashups – Comparing the discussions from different sources
INTERACTIVE SERVICE Word cloud Citizens Word tree Media
OPEN APPLICATION INTEGRATION • Open Visualization Platform – Interoperable Service publicly available • Mobile Devices – Android app developed by third party developers • Tablets
QUICK WINS / BENEFITS New channel of communication Short learning curve Portal for information share Simple and flexible Reduces process complexity Enabling transparent citizen communication access Active participation for every Increased transparency in the user from anywhere and at operation and accessibility to anytime the public Application Integration Feature Enabling transformation of the internal data sources into information available for the citizens Quality of services and Operations e-Society communication
