Welsh Water publishes its open data strategy

Welsh Water has published an open data strategy. The company said the strategy is designed to instil an open-by-default culture, where data will be published unless specific safeguards, such as protecting personal information, dictate otherwise.

The strategy, which can be viewed here, https://corporate.dwrcymru.com/en/library/open-data-strategy was developed with Welsh Water’s customer stakeholder groups to ensure customer priorities are captured in the data-sets that are made available.

It is hoped that opening up the company’s data will support innovation, transparency and trust.
