2.2 Open da a
Open Da a (OD) is scien ific da a ha can be published and

OD can be p ocessed and analyzed using da a mining ools and

Acco ding o Huijboom and Van den B oek (2011),OD

Companies can use a ailable public da a o c ea e new

2.3 Da a ecosys ems

2.4 Da afica ion
Da afica ion en ails quan i ying human li e h ough digi al da a

wi hin he business and social sciences domains, whe eby he
da a is pu in a quan ified o m o abula ion and analysis.
Da afica ion ex ends beyond da a digi iza ion o make digi al

Da afica ion concep was ini ially applied in business, and up o

C ucial a eas in he comme cial sec o , such as logis ics, ha e

because o da afica ion. Acco ding o Mai (2016),da afica ion is
ad an ageous because i allows o sophis ica ed da a analysis

2.5 Da a economy
The da a economy comp ises an ecosys em o o ganiza ions ha
use da a as hei business’s main objec o sou ce (Ophe e al.,
2016). I is cen e ed on he p oduc ion, consump ion and
dis ibu ion o digi al da a. The da a economy h i es on he apid

a e no clea dis inc ions be ween he p oduce s and consume s in

a aluable economic esou ce and playe s wi hin he da a economy
can sha e nonpe sonal da a o boos economic g ow h and enhance
inno a ion and in e ope abili y (Bon i e al., 2021). The da a
economy enables playe s o de i e alue om da a by ans o ming

indica e ha pa icipa ion in he da a economy also enables

mainly a ises om sha ing da a wi hin he in e company sys ems,

Consume s and companies cons i u e he leading playe s in he
da a economy, as hey con ibu e o he alue chain associa ed wi h

The da a economy mainly elies on he su eillance
capi alism business model, enabling companies o mone ize
hei da a. In his business model, commodi ies being sold
cons i u e pe sonal da a, and his da a is collec ed and
p oduced h ough massi e in e ne su eillance (Zubo ,
2015). The su eillance allows o ans o ming p i a e human

eme gence o he pe sonal da a economy, allowing indi iduals

Lammi Pan za (2019), he pe sonal da a economy is

3. Me hodology
This s udy ocuses on in es iga ing he domain o da a
