It is difficult to estimate both benefits and risks of data publishing regarding endangered species conservation although open data movement has been popular. This study proposes a framework to build proactive data publishing strategy in order to meet the demand for data publishing without increasing the anthropogenic impact on environments surrounding endangered species and to enhance these conservation activities. The impact of conservation activities and the risk of environmental degradation surrounding endangered species caused by data publishing can be visualized in this framework. The proposed framework was applied using existing data regarding the conservation of Prionailurus bengalensis euptilurus, in Tsushima Island, Nagasaki, Japan as a case study.
