Place matters: the Location Strategy for the United Kingdom
At last the Location Strategy for the UK has been published here. It was started in 2005. I have not waded through it all yet….
An initial skim suggests the main recommendation is more integration of public sector data through common references (DNF is mentioned). There do not seem to be any radical “Free our data” type statements, but they do say dataset owners should:
…simplify their licensing
arrangements so as to facilitate the sharing
of data to realise greater overall value
Oh, and we would get a new government “Location Council” to deliver the new Location Strategy.
