What’s new on the Norfolk Data Observatory?
New development to Norfolk Data Observatory – www.norfolkdata.net/
We hope to have a pilot site ready in early May for evaluation. We are working closely with partners (King’s Lynn and West Norfolk and Great Yarmouth Local Strategic Partnerships) to pilot examples of their information requirements. The development will give more flexibility with the data in creating reports, which will include charts alongside data, maps and a time series for themed sets of data. It will include reporting and monitoring Local Area Agreement indicators and we also hope to include Waveney district area on the Observatory.
Check the table below to see what data has recently been added to the Norfolk Data Observatory…
