This dataset displays the Open Data intake queue in its raw form. Data here contains attributes relating to how the Toronto Open Data team manages its various requests for updating old and publishing new datasets the Toronto Open Data Portal.
Typically, an "Open Data Inquiry" ticket is first opened, prompting Open Data to investigate the possibility of updating or adding new data to the portal. Once the investigation is finished, another ticket will be opened, directing Open Data staff to "Publish a New Open Dataset Page" or "Update an Existing Open Dataset Page". These tickets will be related to the initial inquiry so to track the history of a change from beginning (Inquiry) to end (Publication or Update).
Records here are direct from an internal ticket management system, so they match exactly what Open Data staff are working with. Each record is a period of time in which a ticket was in a particular status.
The creation of this data is to support council motion 2023.EX10.18 and shared with the hopes that it will inform the public what Open Data is working on, and what datasets Open Data is updating or publishing.
