A recipient of one of our earlier OIA requests told me last week that their team found it useful to run through the internal procedures necessary to supply geospatial data to an external recipient. Before the OIA request, their responses to geospatial data requests had been non-standardised.
Now they’re in a position to treat all requests for geospatial data as an OIA request and push them through a pre-planned response process involving appropriate management sign-off.
