Summary

Once your data systems and datasets are inventoried, the publishing priority of the dataset will be calculated. Prioritizing datasets is based on two dimensions:

  • Demand: How valuable is the data? Do people often request to see or use it either through sunshine requests or informally? The higher the demand, the higher the dataset should be prioritized for publishing.

  • Classification: Is the data classified as "Public" or are there "Sensitive" or "Protected" items included in it? The lower the classification, the higher the dataset should be prioritized for publishing.

Unlike previous inventories, publishing priorities will be automatically calculated based on the grid below. You only need to specify a priority if you want to overwrite the decision matrix

  • e.g. you think a P2 dataset should actually be P1

Decision Matrix

Below is a matrix to help decided how datasets should be prioritized.

Add the scores to your datasets

Under the department priority field field in the dataset inventory, you can add you new priority to you datasets based on the system listed above.
