Considering that, it is important to understand the concept over time as a way to better conceive researches based on the contemporary approaches. Therefore, the present study aims to review and categorize existing research on OGD, identifying which approaches are being adopted, which are the research strategies used, how the concept evolves and which are the most referenced articles. Thus, this study reviewed and categorized existing researches on OGD. A systematic review of literature was performed, covering 186 publications presented in the main databases. Papers were analysed through content analysis, more specifically through the steps of reduction, display, conclusion and double verification in isolation. The researches were classified into seven dimensions and under ten different themes. Moreover, countries now considered fully mature in relation to the open data initiatives have addressed issues relating to policy in articles from previous years, when they were still implementing their initiatives. Concurrently with the development of global initiatives in OGD, new scientific papers tend to direct their focus on issues such as added value and corruption. Through the results of this research it is possible to identify widely discussed approaches and those that can be further explored as well as the development of the OGD concept and its dimensions, which can form the basis for future research.
