The system generates, builds on, and uses several sets of big data. This open government data is scattered, generated by market actors and partly framed through government control. This paper explores potentials to manage open government data more transparently, especially regarding the locations and functions of the food system and elaborates on the design of crises management in regard to open government data on the food system in Sweden. To investigate this, we have conducted focus group workshops with local stakeholders and found that the available data are far from comprehensive and compatible. We designed a dummy platform of crises management support on open government data on food. Our analysis shows that the lack of useful and compatible data constrains the possibilities to build a useful platform for crises preparation.10Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 InternationalDisaster Information, Resilience, for Emergency and Crisis Technologiescrises preparedness and management., food system, open government data, sdg2Conference Paper10.24251/HICSS.2025.247
