Abstract

This article focuses on the Open Knowledge Definition and the Panton Principles for Open Data in Science. Some of the tools the group has developed to facilitate the generation and use of open data and the potential uses are discussed. This can encourage further movement towards an open scientific knowledge commons. [Plos Biology]. URL:[http://www.plosbiology.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pbio.1001195]
