What is the Regional Data and Intelligence Network (RDIN)?
The Regional Data and Intelligence Network (RDIN) is a community representing users of data and intelligence across all sectors within the West Midlands region.
Amongst others, the RDIN includes data analysts, research officers, policy officers and information managers.
The RDIN is an important resource for the Observatory, giving us an understanding of the data and intelligence needs of the region and guidance on what services we can offer. The network also provides:
- Access to primary holders and users of data and information
- Facilitation of communication across traditional silos
- Shared expertise, knowledge and best practice
- Promotion and collaboration across the network
