[Purpose/significance] With the development of open government data practices around the world, assessments on open data practices increasingly emerge. Comparing and analyzing those assessment projects and further building up frameworks accordingly could provide meaningful references for future assessment projects, and thus foster open government data practices. [Method/process] The paper examined 11 representative assessment projects by analyzing their frameworks, indices and methods and further built up a comprehensive assessment framework. The paper identified five key dimensions in current assessment frameworks including Readiness, Platform, Data, Use and Effect. [Result/conclusion] The study finds that most current assessment projects focus on Data and Readiness, emphasizing assessments on the format, standard and quality of data, the organizational and managerial competence of the government and the legal framework in fostering open data. The assessment on Platform, Use and Effect, however, varies based on the particular development stage of open data practices. Most assessments adopt both qualitative and quantitative methods, and collect subjective and objective data through questionnaires, observation, interviews, and expert review.
