As the viewpoint of data evolves from business resources to value resources, the focus on the data processing is rapidly shifting from the cartesian (alphanumeric) to the contextual. In response to this trend, the government is actively promoting the utilization of public data by the private sectors. With a focus on the fact that the mainstream of public data users is the crowds, this study, therefore, seeks to identify differences between the members and the crowds from information processing view, followed by presenting directions and main points for the design of data platform. This study is perhaps to be a starting point for finding practical alternatives for creating 'collective intelligence ecosystem' and to be a basis for building a big data base in response to the opening of public data.
