Open Data Manchester and Your Dsposal have been working on a new open data standard for household waste recycling centres (HWRCs) - what you might call the dump or the tip - and this week we have a series of workshops with stakeholders to get feedback on our work and get the standard into a position where we can release version one in the next couple of months.
If you’re interested in waste data (I mean, who isn’t?!) then you can read more about it on @northernjamie’s blog here: https://dsposal.uk/articles/hwrc-data-standard/
And you’re welcome to check out the GitHub repo here: hwrc_data_standard
If you’ve had experience implementing standards and would like to share your knowledge with us please get in touch!
Or if you think you might be interested in using the dataset (once that’s created) we’d love to hear about it as with think about the next stages of the standard and making it as useful as can be to as many people as possible.
