Abstract
<p>Transparency, accountability, administrative efficiency, and economic development are the common motivations for making government datasets publicly available. Open data often include geographic references and may be offered in formats ready to be processed in geographic information systems (GIS). The present research contributes to assessing the value of these geospatial open data. We focus on the economic development goal of municipal open data programs, the available file formats, and their innovation potential. In a case study of four major Canadian cities, we analyze the thematic distribution and the prevalence of GIS-ready data files among available open datasets. For the City of Toronto, we also examine access statistics for the most popular open datasets and their use in developing digital products. The results of this research suggest that political, administrative, and public support for the future maintenance and expansion of open data may require strategic releases of datasets that demonstrably support the stated goals of the respective open data initiative.</p>
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Direct model labels (unvalidated)
Per-model category and study-design labels from the labeling rounds. They are machine output, unvalidated, and the disagreement between models ships as data. No study design here is MEDLINE-validated yet.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedLabeled directly by 2 models reading the full record.
The models disagree on parts of this classification; every voice is preserved in the section at the end of the page.
