The OpenLaws Project: Big Open Legal Data
In the OpenLaws project we aim to deliver a platform that enables users to find legal information more easily, organize it the way they want and share it with others. Together with users we intend to create a network of legislation, case law, legal literature and legal experts – both on a national and a European level – leading to better access to legal information. Besides involving users, we also look at semi-automatic ways of connecting sources of law through the use of natural language techniques and network analysis. In this contribution we will present first results for combining open sources of law in the Netherlands. Not only can we present related legislation and case law, but the law citations in case law influence the ranking of relevant legislation.
