Social policy goes spatial

Rediscovering poverty
• Social policy is marked by periodic realizations that:– Society is becoming more unequal– The ‘poor’ are being left behind
• Characterized by individual households in poverty
• Areas where poor households are concentrated

…… however
• Even when inequality peaks– Most deprived individuals do not live in deprived
areas– Most of those living in ‘deprived’ areas are not
deprived

Putting tenants in context
![Page 7: Open data what's the potential hact 061212](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062703/55518606b4c90596028b4cf7/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Tenant information
• Best at point of let – CORE
• Sometimes maintained
![Page 8: Open data what's the potential hact 061212](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062703/55518606b4c90596028b4cf7/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Asset information
• Plenty of information about property– Type– Size– Energy efficiency– Investment profile
![Page 9: Open data what's the potential hact 061212](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062703/55518606b4c90596028b4cf7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Areas or Households
• Many housing policies are area based e.g.:– Housing Action Areas– Housing Market Renewal
• …alongside other area based policies– Educational Priority Areas– Inner Cities Programme
• When the pendulum swings:– Troubled Families initiative

Tenants on the map
![Page 11: Open data what's the potential hact 061212](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062703/55518606b4c90596028b4cf7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Closed approach• Buy proprietary Geographical Information
System:– ESRI ArcMap– MapInfo
• Buy proprietary data– Ordnance Survey– Experian– Royal Mail
• Hire an ‘expert’– In-house or a service company /consultant
![Page 12: Open data what's the potential hact 061212](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062703/55518606b4c90596028b4cf7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Open approach
• Use open source software– e.g. Quantum GIS or PostGIS– or an Open Platform (though many are Freemium)
• Use open data– ONS NESS data, ONSPD– Ordnance Survey Open Data– Open Street Map
• Hire an ‘expert’– In-house or a service company / consultant

Making Use of Open Data

What do we have to gain?
![Page 18: Open data what's the potential hact 061212](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062703/55518606b4c90596028b4cf7/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
What do we have to gain?
• Gaining control of our own data and information
• Getting a better understanding of Social Return on Investment
• Being able to relate the impact of work with tenants on areas
• Being able to relate the impact of area based initiatives on tenants
![Page 19: Open data what's the potential hact 061212](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062703/55518606b4c90596028b4cf7/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
What do we have to gain?
• Being able to make better investment decisions based on evidence
• Getting an early warning of area based problems e.g. reduction in demand

Conclusions

Conclusions
Social landlords have always needed to place their tenants in context:But•Too expensive•Too difficult•Didn’t know what they would do with the knowledge
![Page 22: Open data what's the potential hact 061212](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062703/55518606b4c90596028b4cf7/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Conclusions
The combination of Open data and a managed platform overcomes many of these obstacles.
Platform provides an opportunity to share best practice and benchmark performance against others in a safe and confidential environment.
Costs of development and analysis can be shared
