Notes de l'éditeur
- My role is of course strongly influenced by the issues that the Government of the day cares about, such as health, economic well-being and security, including the country’s resilience to natural and man-made disasters: all aspects which you and Government colleagues play a part in addressing on a daily basis.
- In the 2014 floods there were complaints that homeowners didn’t know if there house would flood. The EA has now created the flood risk finder. Open Data - our approach We are committed to be an Open Data organisation (EDT decision June 2014) and we already have over 100 datasets available. We are already seeing examples of the proliferation of products that are providing our open data to end users. Clockwise from top left: FloodAlerts from Shoothill Flood risk finder app Bathing Water results from Cornwall County Council Showing the potential – integrating our data in a live way in satnav services could mean that drive routes will be updated to avoid areas where flood warnings are in force. Open data will maximise the reach of our information and help deliver environmental outcomes.
