Mapping the interoperability

landscape

Interoperability Working Group

Action examples

• Support for Johnathon’s work• ARC project on complex systems• ICT technology strategy• Particular projects (standards mapping)• Etc etc

This afternoon’s task…

• Each group should come up with three next steps to progress work towards a shared approach to interoperability

• Keep in mind these three themes:– The need to understand interoperability in designing

new systems– The open publication of data dictionaries– Sharing data across systems

• But also consider other themes that may have emerged for you

Part 1

Practice centric technology leadership

How should this landscape look?

Sector publishing of individual standards (or data dictionaries)

Example of the sorts of standards (not published in this way as yet)

Example 1: Quality Assurance standards: Evidence Guide for Registered Community Service Organisationshttp://tinyurl.com/bxwy3l  

Example 2: IRIS Data Dictionary for Family Serviceshttp://tinyurl.com/b6z79h
