Stream wins global Esri award for geospatial innovation...
Stream, a UK water open data initiative, has won an Esri ‘Special Achievement in GIS Award’ for its work in helping water companies to share their data with each other and various stakeholders, including innovators, citizens, regulators and interest groups.
The award was presented at the Esri annual User Conference in California, one of the world’s largest geospatial industry events with around 40,000 physical and virtual attendees. Selected from hundreds of thousands of candidates, the winners were chosen by Esri’s President Jack Dangermond.
Esri technology has been used to create Stream’s open data sharing portal – a central hub containing and connecting to a wide range of data from UK water companies, including natural environment and water consumption information.
“Stream is delighted to receive this award and be recognised for its landmark innovation,” said Nigel Watson, Group CIO for Northumbrian Water Group and executive sponsor for Stream. “Driving improved transparency, collaboration and smarter decisions, the open data platform is the foundation of a new era for the UK water sector. Stream is quickly becoming a core piece of UK national data infrastructure thanks to the unprecedented level of collaboration.”
