Open data and public health overlap in numerous ways to improve health outcomes, enhance research, and empower communities. By sharing and utilizing open data, public health efforts can become more effective, efficient, and transparent. PLOS brought us this interesting topic in their article, “The beauty of (open) data will save public global health.”

Public health agencies and organizations can make their data open and accessible to researchers, policymakers, and the general public. This allows for better collaboration, insights, and analysis by a wider range of stakeholders.

Open data also empowers individuals and communities to take control of their health. It can provide information about local health services, environmental factors, and health risks, enabling people to make informed choices.

While open data in public health offers numerous benefits, it also comes with some inherent risks that need to be carefully managed. Privacy concerns and data quality are two of those.
