The practice of open (public) data (OD) is usually interpreted in the context of open government initiatives. Public data may be opened up for the reason of transparency in support of accountability or with the intent to allow for innovative re-use in value added services. To investigate the resulting complex setting of OD researchers often use the ecosystem metaphor. This approach is based on theories of biology and ecology and over the years the ecosystem view of OD has become the dominant model underlying discussions. The research reported in this paper has been set out with the goal of collecting and analysing the various opendata visual models that had appeared in relevant literature. Results of a systematic comparison and categorization indicate that while there have been many papers published utilizing ecosystem as a model to investigate the OD phenomena, there is no common way of how to represent entities and relationships of such an ecosystem in a visual model. The final goal is to to prepare the ground for an open data ecosystem model visual notation.
