GIS in Midland Heart
• Sits in the research team – provides oversight of the organisation
• Desktop GIS, but an intranet GIS being developed
• A mixture of internal (asset) and ‘open’ data – from census data through to OS OpenData.
• Internal asset data is the key source of data
• Two broad customer types:1) Operational requests (Asset management focus)2) Strategic requests (Research focus)

Open Data – the challenge…
• Where to start?• What adds value?• What provides insight?
• Needs to be question led…

Open Data – the challenge (2)…
• Plenty of information in the open domain – but still relatively limited with regards to housing…
• NROSH?• Clear examples where data sharing across
Housing Associations would be of a collective benefit
• Reticence due to data protection – but some barriers are imagined…
• WMBUS – attempting to collectively address the issue of welfare reform..
