The Australian federal government is joining up with state governments to ensure that public datasets are available on the national portal.
This month, it announced that South Australian open data will be available on the national portal, while the state portal will also provide access to national datasets.
“Users of data.sa.gov.au and data.gov.au will be able to find data resources from either portal using a single search. Now, users of the portals will have over 5,700 datasets and their fingertips,” blogged Allan Barger of the data.gov.au team.
He added that “this functionality is being made available to all government data portals in Australia”.
Local datasets will display first on the local portal, while national datasets will be given more prominence on the data.gov.au site to help match users’ priorities.
Australia has also made its national identity assurance scheme, MyGov, available to local governments, and has opened up access to its single GovCMS project.
