Australian Government Data Catalogue

The Office of the National Data Commissioner (ONDC) is developing an Australian Government Data Catalogue that will serve as a central point to facilitate discovery, use and re-use of government-held data. The Catalogue will increase the transparency of government-held data holdings, reduce duplication, and enable greater re-use and sharing of data.

The Catalogue will draw on agency data inventories developed through the Data Inventories Pilot Program (DIPP), as well as open and other data sources to help users find Australian Government data. Under the DIPP, the ONDC is working with Australian Government agencies to help them discover their data and to develop a standardised list of data assets they hold - known as a data inventory.
