Dataplace is the digital platform to find public sector data and to manage data sharing requests and agreements.

The platform brings together those wanting access to Australian Government data (such as researchers and those working on public policy and delivering public services) with Commonwealth agencies who are the data custodians. The platform is also used by the National Data Commissioner to regulate the DATA Scheme.

You can use Dataplace to:

• find data using the Australian Government Data Catalogue
• apply for accreditation to be a data user under the DATA Scheme
• apply for accreditation to be a data service provider under the DATA Scheme
• request Australian Government data, including under the DATA Scheme
• develop a data sharing agreement – a general or DATA Scheme data sharing agreement.
• monitor and report on your data sharing activities – what data your entity is sharing, with who and for what purpose.

You can find out more about Dataplace, including how to get on-board, by visiting Dataplace and clicking on the ‘About’ menu.
