Status Update, 4-Jul-2013 • HXL is being supported as part of OCHA’s Data and Analysis Project • 2 full time staff: program manager and open data technical advisor ( ) • 5 consultants + 2 firms (ScraperWiki and Frog), long term posts in process • Possible in-kind support from Emergency.lu, Ericsson, Motorola
Status Update, 4-Jul-2013 • Focus on de-siloing OCHA internal data as well as partner data and making that available to support analysis across the humanitarian community • Phase 1: now through Q1 2013. For HXL: • Reference data services (CODs, emergency names, etc.) • “Predictable” datasets: UNHCR PSR, WFP VAM/Logs • Others?
By the end of phase 1,you should be able to: • Rely on HXL-based services for things like: • Geographic references (pcodes, placenames) • Emergency names • Organization names • Clusters by country • Reliably get some key datasets from partners • Engage with the HXL community to define an interoperability standard for your cluster’s key data
