How is open science defined?

Question

This should probably have been one of the earliest questions to bring up, and I think some basic definition of open science was part of the StackExchange beta, but on the current site, we do not provide a definition, so it seems about time to start a thread on how open science is defined, or what defines it.

There is a closely related question about what the "open" means in science: https://ask-open-science.org/29/what-does-open-mean-in-science .

Answer 1

One example amongst the many available, this systematic literature review may be an overkill.. but it makes the following proposition: “Open Science is transparent and accessible knowledge that is shared and developed through collaborative networks”
