What is Cambridgeshire Insight? Initial Context What is Cambridgeshire Insight?- A local intelligence platform- a place for anybody to develop their intelligence about their area or about a specific socio-economic area. It is split into three key areas- Open Data, Data Visualisation and Research/Information. The public facing local evidence base. It showcases research, analysis, insight and information from a host of local partners. The site also acts as a local response to Open Data and users can access a range of local datasets including population estimates, population forecasts and local housing completions. Nobody knows your ward or community better than you but Cambridgeshire Insight allows you to access and share local data, find and download reports and discover intelligence about your local area. It acts as a valuable planning tool to support strategic planning for growth and development of services in the county but there are opportunities to further support evidence led decisions across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Why am I here To talk through and discuss the point of Cambridgeshire Insight and why we have it. Also, its an opportunity to talk through recent changes in the site and the vision we have been and continue to work towards and where the benefits lie for members and our wider target audience. By highlighting the changes we have made, you will begin to get some insight into exactly what we have done to achieve some of the benefits that this kind of platform can give. Worth reiterating… Corporate Site= Transactional relationship with the public Insight is all about the information, research and supporting policy making

Population and demographics Geographical Economic Deprivation Housing Heritage Open data Interactive Maps Infographics Interactive Reports Data visualisation Community Safety Health Education Population Demographics Economy Information and Research So this diagram helps explain exactly what the Cambridgeshire Insight website is and its key components. Describe each of these this but mention the purpose of the seminar is to talk through the upgrades to the ‘main site’ focusing on the areas in the box. All are inter-relatable though. Open Data feeds the data visualisation and helps steer the information and research. Similarly, the research helps to give context to numbers and offer expert interpretation of them. It’s also important to stress at this point that all of the above are developed across a partnership so we are helping to build the evidence base across multiple organisations and inter-relatable topics. My job is to manage this partnership and encourage officers from inside and outside our organisation to release as much evidence and analysis as possible. The partnership is currently made up predominantly of officers from:
