blish Open Reference Data sets (Code Lists). All suitable lists we find in =
both the private and public sector will be published and made available as =
'Open Data'. We hope to significantly increase the number and coverage of c=
ode lists that are already on the platform.
Reference data is hugely important to help define data standards where thos=
e standards do not exist or cannot be agreed. The platform has already been=
used in projects to successfully map 20,000 code lists into just 300 centr=
al standard codes, meaning data from across 50 locations was successfully t=
ranslated to deliver a single view of information. We hope by providing thi=
s code list repository for the Open Government Data community, it will help=
to support further outcomes from all the Open Data sets published by helpi=
ng map elements of the metadata.
If members would like to provide Open code lists for this exercise, either =
the actual list or a URL I will be delighted to get them published on Listp=
oint under the appropriate Open Licence. We hope to add at least 1000 new c=
ode lists to the platform which in turn will support development of outcome=
s from the Open Government Data sets that already exist out there.
Listpoint is being developed to improve the developer and community tools a=
nd aid the future management and sharing of reference data. In the interim=
please feel free to have a look at the beta site at http://beta.listpoint.=
co.uk<http://beta.listpoint.co.uk/> which holds a copy of all the public co=
de lists available.
