The Bo Sundgren Award of the International Marketing and Output Database Conference IMAODBC 2012 in Pruhonice near Prag goes to Alain Nadeau from the  Swiss Federal Statistical Office FSO.
In his contribution Alain showed how the renovation of the FSO website can go together with a more open data-oriented publishing. This by separating the three layers of the application.
One of the databases in the data layer is planned to be in the linked open data format, the 5star format described by Tim Berners-Lee. A prototype is under way and first experiences will show up beginning 2013.
