  ABSTRACT: Public data is one of the most important basic data resources in the era of digital economy. Opening public data is an important way to utilize the value of public data and promote economic development. However, at present, China has not made an accurate definition of the concept of public data, lacks unified rules for opening public data, and the construction of public data opening platform is faulty. In order to better use of public data, China should firstly define the specific scope of public data in terms of subjective elements, behavioral elements and content elements, and accelerate the formulation of national legal norms for public data opening, clarify the purpose of the legislation, build up a legal framework including the basic principles of public data opening, division of responsibilities, opening methods, supervision and evaluation mechanisms, etc., and construct a public data opening platform covering the whole country.
