We make open-source software for the cannabis industry, there are roughly 150 other software providers in this space, and we all need to share data (Lot details, Crop details, Product details, Lab Results, etc). Around 2018 or so we published a OpenAPI specification for data models ( https://github.com/openthc/api ) that we were hoping to get others to participate in. It's been rather difficult.
The previous blocker was that in much of the USA, this data flows through a central system operated by the Government (as a contract to BioTrackTHC, Metrc or Akerna/MJ Freeway/LeafData). So, there hasn't been a critical need for interop. However, recent states to legislate cannabis (Oklahoma, Maine) don't fully have that and one (Washington) is moving away from theirs at the end of the year.
The Washington state one is now, finally, getting some eyeballs to our API model. We'd been inviting these compititors for years to participate but it was crickets. Just recently a trade association stepped up efforts to get some parties to the table. After a few meetings we still haven't been able to even agree to agree. It's frustrating to be asked over and over if we're OK to have others contribute (TF!? we've been asking them for years). And the conversations go in circles:
a) what if we don't get everybody to participate? (we won't)

Federated data sharing is the core use case of the magic Postgres database we’re building at Splitgraph [0]. We’d love to help you solve these problems! The ideas you’re describing are exactly what we want to achieve – data sharing should be as easy as changing a connection string in a SQL client. It sounds like your use case would be a good fit for what we’re building. If you’d like to learn more, please send me a note – email in profile.
