It seems obvious. So why is data
‘dumped’ and savings missed?

 •   Only 35% of UK civil servants know that using data standards
     can reduce IT implementation costs

 •   Only 40% know that data standards make data interoperable

 •   78% do not know what benefits will flow from the open data
     agenda

What can the OD community
do to give data more value?
•   Government Open Data is not Open Data
    without the reference data sat alongside it
•   Champion the cause
      Raise awareness of the role classifications play
•   Re-use the tools available
•   Outcomes
      Reduce costs, improve services, innovation

  • 15. It seems obvious. So why is data ‘dumped’ and savings missed? • Only 35% of UK civil servants know that using data standards can reduce IT implementation costs • Only 40% know that data standards make data interoperable • 78% do not know what benefits will flow from the open data agenda Source: Listpoint/ Dods civil service research into understanding of open data agenda and benefits – December 2012.

  • 16. What can the OD community do to give data more value? • Government Open Data is not Open Data without the reference data sat alongside it • Champion the cause Raise awareness of the role classifications play • Re-use the tools available • Outcomes Reduce costs, improve services, innovation Greater value in ‘Open Data’

Editor's Notes

  1. It is a big ask to get departments to align the standards to which they report but it does exist – take central government reporting requirements of local governmentHowever – the reference data existsData.gov.uk has over 9000 data sets on it, but if you search for ‘reference data standard’ – you get Zero. Search for code list – and you get 1200 returns but very few are the actual reference data that sits alongside the data There are over 9000 datasets tipped into data.gov.
