Advertise your data using datacasting tools

To make your data available using standard and open software tools you should:

• Use standard language and terms to clearly communicate to others that your data are available for reuse and that you expect ethical and appropriate use of your data

• Use an open source datacasting (RSS or other type) service that enables you to advertise your data and the options for others to obtain access to it (RSS, GeoRSS, DatacastingRSS)
