3.1.1: Data Release Process
Build on the proven existing process for clearing information to manage the release of new and/or high-value mission-driven
data.
Other Information:
The DOT has a long history of releasing mission-driven information to the public. There is a proven existing process for clearing
information that is regularly released from the Department that includes review from the relevant and highest levels. The
DOT will build on this process to manage the release of new and/or high-value mission-driven data. Formalizing the data release
process is a priority and must be finalized well in advance of the first data release. The process will ensure that all data
released from the Department considers security, privacy, confidentiality, and quality. In addition, it is important to provide
the proper context for data that is released from the Department. All data has a story about how it relates to the DOT mission
and it is important to provide the data in the context of that story. The OST Office of Public Affairs will determine what
methods are appropriate to provide that context, such as press releases, fact sheets, data visualization tools or the like.
