Unlocking the value of fragmented public data

Data that would help us make better decisions and build new businesses is too hard to access. This is a big problem, but one where a little work can unlock a lot of value. How we handle publishing data is about the distribution of costs between publishers, intermediaries and users - and where it is most effective to spend resources across the whole system. Our argument is that the value and impact of the data can be made significantly larger, if data publishers and conveners do only slightly more work upfront. Reducing the amount of duplicated work by intermediaries and users (or lowering the cost of making use of the data at all), makes it much easier for the data to actually be used, and have the impact and create the value that policymakers intend.
