“Across the Network I would like to thank our data partners and all those who provide their records to be freely and openly shared, the NBN and the NBN Atlas wouldn’t exist without you.” – Michael Hassell, NBN Chairman
“…the direction of travel towards the expectation of more open data poses some challenges, but I believe there are also opportunities associated with open data for our network.” – Dr Jo Judge, NBN CEO
This review of 2016 – 2017 highlights the work that has taken place over the last year to support the NBN Strategy 2015 – 2020. It is fair to say that the major work for the year focused on the lead up to the launch of the NBN Atlas, our new data sharing infrastructure. Whilst linked most directly with Strategic Aim 4, the NBN Atlas work cuts across all of the NBN’s Strategic Aims and has required us all to adapt our ways of working and to take new opportunities arising from the changes it brought. We are committed to the NBN Atlas delivering a long term, sustainable and successful platform to suit all our needs.
Along with the reports from the Chairman and Chief Executive this annual review includes reports from a cross-section of our members to highlight their part in the Network and what it means to them. There are also the usual Financial reports and Administrative information.
