Summary:
"Open data can mean different things to different people. For me and my team, it’s not about giving away data, it’s about giving it back.
Over the last 50 years, CIAT scientists have generated a gamut of data, ranging from crop models to maps of climate change risks. A lot of these are open to everyone.
That’s because as a publicly funded institution, we owe it to the public that they have free access to our data."
