DAPR Data Request System using Microsoft Dynamics

Page 19: Interagency Data Team - | octo · 2020. 3. 23. · MicroStrategy Production @ version 2019 Update 3. Version 2020 will be upgraded in the coming months with new physical server implementation

Background• Purpose of this project: To replace the current data request tool in Google Forms

• Collaboration: The Division of Analytics and Policy Research (DAPR) and the IT Division are collaborating to use Dynamics 365 to build an automated data request system for DHCF internal and external requestors

• Users: Internal data requestors are all DHCF folks; external data requestors include sister agencies in DC Government and anyone outside of DC Government

• Functionality of the system: submit data requests, track data analysis progress, store requests and associated data, increase transparency of data requesting process

• Data Privacy: Privacy Officer is involved in the approval process to check DUA, MOA, and MOU and to be informed regarding potential data privacy issues of data requests

FOIA-Open Data Feedback Loop

• FOIA request-tracking data should inform public bodies about public demand for open data. In fact, the Data Policy mandates use of the system for mayoral agencies

• Open data publication of FOIA request-tracking data can help residents hold public bodies accountable for the timely and consistent processing of requests

• Successful appeals for datasets previously denied under FOIA exemptions can inform public bodies about potential errors in dataset classification.

Draft Technology Strategic Plan for DC: Unleashing the Possible

Vision: Unleashing the possible for DC in the digital age.

Mission: Empower DC government through technology by providing valued services, advising agencies, and collaboratively governing information technology.

Commitments: Nine commitments to our agencies, residents, businesses, visitors, and to the OCTO team. They focus on providing exceptional services, products, technology guidance and governance.

Commitment 4: Manage, organize, and leverage data to facilitate DC government mission delivery.

Initiatives: The tasks and initiatives OCTO will undertake to ensure DC agencies have the tools to manage, organize, and leverage data to make better decisions.

• 4.1 Identify high-value mission use cases to improve the use of data in service of specific Mayoral initiatives and focus areas.

• 4.2 Streamline policy and process to share and use data.• 4.3 Support agency use of big data and artificial intelligence

Goals4.1 “Identify high-value mission use cases to improve the use of data in service of specific Mayor initiatives.” DescriptionNew Goal: Support Mayoral housing focus area We cited our work in support of the Office of Planning for the U.S.

Census and our contribution to Mayor Bowser’s focus area on housing. But we can be doing more to support housing agencies. Next year’s report shall feature an “accomplishment” with a housing agency.

New Goal: Focus on one DC government cluster in depth. While continuing to support all DC agencies, next year we will work closely and voluntarily with one DC government cluster (Education, Health and Human Services, Internal Services, Operations and Infrastructure, Planning and Economic Development, or Public Safety and Justice) to go more in-depth in understanding the cluster’s data and supporting its mayoral initiatives. The report shall include a section that focuses on that cluster.

2019 Goal: Train agency communications and engagement teams in data storytelling

As Mayor Bowser has demonstrated with her mayor.dc.gov website, opendata.dc.gov offers many ways to explain and track policies using open data. Familiarizing communications teams with the capabilities should drive publication and utilization of open data.

Some Progress A data team representative speaks to every web training class hosted by the OCTO Web Team. However, Comms teams still need more exposure to what the OCTO Data Team can help them achieve:• Interactive “Hub” sites, like the one developed by DDOT’s

Urban Forestry Administration

• Public facing dashboards like EdScape developed by the Deputy Mayor for Education

• Add open data integrations like mayor.dc.gov, which was featured in last year’s report.

Goals4.2. “Streamline policy and process to share and use data” Description

New Goal: Develop technology and processes to help agencies with data anonymization.

There are a variety of ways to summarize or mask PII to make it harder to identify individuals within a dataset. No anonymization is full proof, but OCTO should offer standard practices and tools that make easier to anonymize Level 3 for sharing and analysis. OCTO already has some capital funds dedicated to this project.

New Goal: Leverage the EDI to promote data sharing Develop an interactive dashboard to allow the public and agencies to explore the EDI. This will improve openness and generate more requests to share data.

2019 Goal revised from 2018: Develop eMOU system to support data-sharing agreements

Not all data can be open, and the Data Policy calls on the CDO to develop a “streamlined process for interagency data sharing.” A data-sharing agreement is a document of agreement between two agencies in which the data steward agrees to share specific data with another agency subject to certain terms and limitations. Faster execution, with better tracking and enforcement of data-sharing agreements, is needed across the District government. OCTO already maintains a system known as “eMOU,” where MOU stands for memorandum of understanding. With modifications, such as multilateral agreements, the eMOU can be adapted to handle standardized data-sharing agreements.

• The tool will need to support multilateral or brokered agreements, not just agreements between two agencies.

Progress but not enough

We now have a draft multilateral data-sharing agreement template that establishes a “facilitator” role for OCTO. The template has recently been turned over for legal review and then automation can begin.

2019 Goal: Move open datasets to the opendata.dc.gov portal

OCTO will work with agencies, the Open Government Advisory Group, and the community to prioritize posting the remaining XXX open enterprise datasets identified in the EDI that are not yet on the open data portal.

TBD Waiting on the numbers

2019 Goal: Develop API best practices

Part of the CDO mission is to facilitate data sharing. APIs are a common tool for fast, flexible, and secure data integration. OCTO maintains minimal API standards for District agencies on its intranet site, but much more guidance is required. This is especially true where more and more, but not all, data is moving to cloud-based software and service applications.

Progress

The Data Team has prepared a draft “API and Middleware Policy,” which is going through the review process. We will continue to work on best practices in the coming year.

Goals4.3 “Support agency use of big data and artificial intelligence” Description

New Goal: Develop a plan for leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI) The District agencies and OCTO don’t currently have a shared understanding of what AI is or how we would apply it in support of the Mayor’s Focus Areas. Together with SmarterDC we shall develop and publish such an understanding and direction.

New Goal: Revitalize the DC Data Science User Group OCTO helped to found a Data Scientist user group for District employees. The group promoted information sharing and pest practices for data science projects and predictive analytics. Meetings have fallen off due to staff turnover. The group should be revitalized in the coming year with regular meetings and increased membership.

2019 Goal: Develop cutting-edge data platform to support analyticsNow is the time to push utilization of the Data Lake. • The Lab @ DC has agreed to migrate at least one agency’s datasets

into OCTO’s searchable “Data Lake” and undertake at least one multiagency Data Science Project with the system.

• The OCTO Data Team will gather and catalog as much Level 1 and Level 2 data as we can to populate data.in.dc.gov.

ProgressThe DC Data Lake is up and running. This year we focused on utilization and made progress with three significant customers:• DDOT is using the lake to store and analyze dockless mobility data.

• OCTO’s DC Net program, as part of a proof of concept for Low-Power Wide Area Network, is bringing in smart city sensor data.

• The Lab @ DC has approved the data lake for some of its sensitive datasets.

The less sensitive Level 1 and Level data have been loaded in the lake.
