DESCRIPTION
Has most of government data released openly so far been flytipping, little used and of little value? David Mitton, of ListPoint, will discuss how more value from government data can be realised. Using the national police database as a case study, he will examine how this data was made more widely usable and how IT implementation costs were reduced by 20%, just by surfacing and mapping the data standards.

Mapping competing codes together creates a data translation layer
Federated data is made interoperable without redefining data standards
Fly Tipping
• Wasteful
• Drain on resources
• Costly

Dumping
• Fees generated from commercial ‘tippers’
• Sales of electricity from gas generated

Recycling
• Social and economic benefitsReduction in pollution
Creation of 4 :1 extra jobs versus traditional incineration
Eases demand for natural resources

• OutcomesImproved quality and reusability of data

How important is being organised?
• The Soham Murders
• Holly Wells & Jessica Chapman
• Data was not interoperable
• Information existed to prevent this tragedy
The challenge of interoperability
M = Male, F = Female, U = Unkown….or does it?
• Try to enforce standards and you get resistance
• Solution is to manage diversity, not try to impose uniformity
• Good standards emerge by embracing all standards and collaborating

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. More information at www.listpoint.co.uk
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 causeRaise awareness of the role classifications play
• Re-use the tools available
• OutcomesReduce costs, improve services, innovation
Greater value in ‘Open Data’
£655 Million in savings if code lists are organising and reused
