Abstract: The authorized operation of public data can deepen the reform of the market-oriented allocation of data elements, accelerate the development and utilization of public data, and tap the potential value of public data to promote the high-quality development of the digital economy. By analyzing the current policy text of public data authorization and operation issued by local governments in China, it can provide reference for local governments to introduce relevant policies in the future. Based on the policy instrument theory, this paper constructs a three-dimensional analytical framework of "policy toolsgovernance domain-policy influence", and uses NVivo14 to quantitatively analyze 37 public data authorization operation policy texts issued by local governments from 2021 to 2025. The results show that the structure of policy tools is unbalanced, the dependence on environmental policy tools is high, the demand-based policy tools are relatively lacking, and the policy pull is insufficient. The field of governance is unevenly distributed, with more attention paid to the economic field and less attention to the political and ecological fields. There is a gradient gap in policy influence in China, that is, the policy influence presents a pattern of eastern> central> western > northeast. Based on this, this study proposes optimization countermeasures from three dimensions: policy tools, governance domains, and policy influence.
