Why Open Data is a culture of working with information on the example of Roszdravnadzor

Instead of introducing and introducing, I immediately suggest looking at the picture. I'll warn you right away that there is no Internet Explorer ad in it.

you can receive a message similar to it simply by trying to open the operational monitoring system for medicines (MOLS) http://mols.roszdravnadzor.ru/
This is such a state automated information system of Roszdravnadzor.

I have no doubt that many of you have encountered similar situations in a huge number of government projects, working with banks and much more.

Actually here such cases violate one of the principle of open data - accessibility. Technological restrictions in no way make them accessible and the same situation with many other Roszdravnadzor registries.
For example:

')
It would seem that for sure the employees of Roszdravnadzor should have known about these restrictions and they could open at least some of the data in the newly created open data section of their website, here - http://roszdravnadzor.ru/opendata

However, things are a little different.

Firstly, in the list of arrays that are published by Roszdravnadzor, none of the registries above simply do not exist.
Secondly, even the fact that "published" in fact absent.

I can’t give direct links, because they have placed everything on the site with strange Javascript code instead of permalinks, therefore with text.

If we open the array N5 "Statistical information generated by the federal executive body in accordance with the federal plan of statistical work, as well as statistical information on the results of the scheduled and unscheduled inspections"

We will see that there is nothing there.


And if we look at the data sets:


Then we find that the references to the data array contain nothing except the description of the fields. Yes, and those described very strange.


Therefore, let's call everything by our names - many departments approached and approach the discovery of data very formally. They do not seek to publish data in a convenient way, do not consult with developers, their systems restrict access to information.

And this is without taking into account the fact that we have not yet called their contact numbers, have not written their emails for contacts. We will also do such a feedback test, but this is the next step.
