In recent years, digitalization has made key progresses in every corner of modern society, and the utilization of data and information and communication technology has become increasingly important in various fields including government. In the administrative field, it is critical to utilize information and communication technology and formulate policies based on data to respond to administrative management and social issues in local governments. Therefore, a prominent need rises for promoting the utilization of data especially open data in local governments. In this study, we build a support system that utilizes artificial intelligence technology through industry-government-academia collaboration toward the practice of promoting image open data in local governments. Currently, local governments nationwide are promoting open data in text and tabular format, but due to issues such as portrait right and privacy, it is not common to disclose images as open data in local governments. This makes it difficult to promote and utilize image open data. Therefore, in this study, we have developed a support system to promote the disclosure of images become open data. In addition, the support system was verified through demonstration experiments in local governments through industry-government-academia collaboration. As a result, we were able to confirm the feasibility and effectiveness of disclosure images owned by local governments into open data. We consider that this will lead to the utilization of image open data. Also, we reduce the work burden related to image open data in local governments and improve work efficiency. Furthermore, through this study, we aim to verify the effect and significance of using artificial intelligence technology for local government works, and to deepen the understanding and image of the use of artificial intelligence technology.
