href="https://blog.okfn.org/author/admin/" title="Posts by Open Knowledge Foundation" rel="author">Open Knowledge Foundation</a> </p> <div class="entry-content"> <p>This post was written by <a href="https://twitter.com/owenboswarva">Owen Boswarva</a></p> <p>For a third year running the United Kingdom has come out at or near the top of the Global Open Data Index. Unlike many of the countries that did well in previous years, the UK’s overall standing has not been greatly affected by the addition of five new categories. This demonstrates the broad scope of the UK’s open data programme. Practitioners within UK government who work to develop and release open datasets have much of which to be proud.</p> <p>However the UK’s role as an open data leader also carries the risk of overconfidence. Policymakers can easily be tempted to rest on their laurels. If we look in more detail at this year’s submissions we can find plenty of learning points and areas for further development. There are also some signs the UK open data agenda may be losing momentum.</p> <p>The biggest gap this year is in election results data, with the Electoral Commission dataset disqualified because it only reports down to constituency level. The criteria have changed from previous years, so this decision may seem a little harsh. But globally most electoral fraud takes place at the polling station. The UK is a mature democracy and should set an example by publishing more granular data.</p> <p>There is a similar weakness in UK public data on water quality, which is available only at a high level in annual reports from regulators. Environmental data in general has been a mixed bag in 2015. Ordnance Survey, which maps most of the UK, published the first detailed open map of the river network; and the environment department Defra announced an ambition to release 8,000 open datasets. However there is a noticeable absence of open bulk data for historical weather observations and air pollution measurements.</p> <p>UK progress on open data is also held back by the status of land ownership data. Ownership records and land boundaries are maintained by Land Registry and other government agencies. But despite (or perhaps because of) the considerable public interest in understanding how property wealth is distributed in the UK, this invaluable data is accessible only on commercial terms.</p> <p><img src="http://www.data2insights.info/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/dgu-header.png" width="310" height="67" class="alignnone" /></p> <p>In other categories we can see deteriorations in the quality of UK open data.</p> <p>National Archives is struggling to maintain its much-admired Legislation.gov.uk dataset. The latest version of Contracts Finder, an open search facility for public sector procurement contracts, no longer offers bulk downloads. Government digital strategy is turning steadily towards APIs and away from support for analytic re-use of public data.</p> <p>Can the UK sustain its record of achievement in open data policy? Most of the central funding streams that supported open data release in recent years came to an end in 2015. A number of user engagement groups and key initiatives have either been wound up or left to drift. Urban and local open data hubs are thriving, but political devolution and lack of centralised collection are creating regional disparities in the availability of open data. Truly national datasets, those that help us understand the UK as a nation, are becoming harder to find.</p> <p>UK open data policy may play well on the international stage, but at home there is still plenty of work for campaigners to do.</p>   <div class="molongui-clearfix"></div> <div id="mab-3162907623" class="m-a-box " data-plugin-release="4.6.18" data-plugin-version="lite" data-box-layout="slim" data-box-position="below" data-multiauthor="false" data-author-id="1" data-author-type="user" data-author-archived=""> <div class="m-a-box-container"> <div class="m-a-box-tab m-a-box-content m-a-box-profile" data-profile-layout="layout-1" data-author-ref="user-1" itemscope itemid="https://blog.okfn.org/author/admin/" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person" > <div class="m-a-box-content-top"> </div> <div class="m-a-box-content-middle">  <div class="m-a-box-item m-a-box-avatar" data-source="local"> <a class="m-a-box-avatar-url" href="https://blog.okfn.org/author/admin/"> <img width="150" height="150" src="https://blog.okfn.org/wp-content/files/2024/01/OKFN-notext-black@2x-squared-150x150.png" class="attachment-150x150 size-150x150" alt="" loading="lazy" itemprop="image" /> </a> </div>   <div class="m-a-box-item m-a-box-data">  <div class="m-a-box-name m-a-box-title"> <h5 > <a class="m-a-box-name-url " href="https://blog.okfn.org/author/admin/" > Open Knowledge Foundation </a> </h5> </div>  <div class="m-a-box-item m-a-box-meta"> <script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript"> if ( typeof window.ToggleAuthorshipData === 'undefined' ) { function ToggleAuthorshipData(id, author) { let box_selector = '#mab-' + id; let box = document.querySelector(box_selector); if ( box.getAttribute('data-multiauthor') ) box_selector = '#mab-' + id + ' [data-author-ref="' + author + '"]'; let label = document.querySelector(box_selector + ' ' + '.m-a-box-data-toggle'); label.innerHTML = ( label.text.trim() === "+ posts" ?

The Drinking Water Inspectorate (PDFs, personal use only etc) shows that six years of UK open data policy has yet to reach some Arms Lengths Bodies – even those who are supposed to be protecting the public. And the backsliding on bulk contracts data is worrying.</p> <p>However the score on Election Results is surely an artefact of the new requirement that individual polling station data should be published – even if it does not exist. UK Election Law and Regulations <em>require</em> the votes from different polling stations to be mixed even before being counted – so not only are there no figures by polling station but also count observers cannot even informally gauge the number of votes at any polling station for each candidate. Presumably the policy reasoning is that the MP should represent the whole constituency, not just parts of it? Views may vary on that, and Owen has his own. But in this year’s Index the UK is now being judged on the nature of its electoral system rather than on how open is the election data actually collected from that system (on the latter, the UK is still 100%)..</p> <p>Moreover if the UK Electoral Commission reversed policy and published no data at all that would not make the Index score any worse: is that what any of us want to happen?</p>
