The public data portal provides various public data created by the government in the form of files and open APIs. In order to increase the usability of public open data, a variety of information should be provided to users and should be convenient to use for users. This requires the structured data design plan of the public data. In this paper, we propose a data design method to improve the usability of the Seoul subway public data. For the study, we first identify some properties of the current subway public data and then classify the data based on these properties. The properties used as classification criteria are stored properties, derived properties, static properties, and dynamic properties. We also analyze the limitations of current data for each property. Based on this analysis, we classify currently used subway public data into code entities, base entities, and history entities and present the improved design of entities according to this classification. In addition, we propose data retrieval functions to increase the utilization of the data. If the data is designed according to the proposed design of this paper, it will be possible to solve the problem of duplication and inconsistency of the data currently used and to implement more structural data. As a result, it can provide more functions for users, which is the basis for increasing usability of subway public data.
