Use of Open Government Data in the Brazilian States and Federal District Public Administrations

Each row of the dataset lists the responses to a questionnaire about the use (consumption) of open government data (OGD) in the Brazilian states and federal district public administrations. The questionnaire was applied between June 10 and July 9, 2021, in a sample of focal points designated by the GTD.GOV. The dataset contains 26 lines, one response per Federation Unit, except for the State of São Paulo, which did not answer the survey. Thus, this dataset represents the perspective of each federation unit participating in the survey. Respondents were instructed to offer the view of their Federation Unit, as they are state officials responsible for open data in their administrations. After collection, we exported the data to Excel. The resulting dataset was cleaned and is in a table format. Questionnaire responses are provided in two files ResultsSurvey_OGDUseBRStatesDF_DataSet_PT and ResultsSurvey_OGDUseBRStatesDF_DataSet_EN. They contain the same information in Portuguese and English. V2 - Added a dataset with the extracts of interviews conducted with three states. Each row of this dataset has six columns: Factor Code shows the factor code as it appears in the questionnaire. A factor code represents benefit (BE), barrier (BA), enabler (E), driver (D), or N/A when the factor does not exist in the questionnaire or when it is the response to a question, such as why OGD is used in the public sector. The column Factor Description Portuguese describes the factor in Portuguese. The column Factor Description English presents the factor description in English. The column Interviewee holds the interviewee code. The column Extract Portuguese has an excerpt of the transcribed interview in Portuguese that provide evidence of the factor. Finally, the column Extract English presents the translation of the Portuguese extract. Interviews extracts are provided in the file InterviewExtracts_BR_StatesDF_Dataset and metadata in the AboutBR_StatesDF.
