项目摘要

Data underpins our business and economy and can be collected by everything and everyone from lampposts to professors. By sharing these datasets between public and private sector organisations and businesses it is possible to generate significant extra socio-economic benefits for the UK economy and its citizens. This is particularly true for infrastructure owners and operators who collect similar datasets (e.g. meteorological data) and face similar 21st Century challenges and opportunities. Better knowledge exchange and data-sharing between these separate businesses and organisations can: improve operational procedures; drive new solutions; and foster joined up response to common environmental problems such as air quality, extreme weather events or longer-term climatic change. A cross-disciplinary approach is also crucial to limit cascade failures and build resilience across the infrastructure system as a whole. For example, a failure in the electricity network could impact the transport sector by stopping electrified trains or causing black-outs along streets or motorway. Or a dam failure could flood the nearby road and railway line. Cascade failures are particularly disruptive in urban areas which have a high population density and critical infrastructure like railway stations or energy substations. Considering blue and green infrastructure is also vital for whole systems approach. For example, flooding and vegetation (leaves on the line, debris following high winds) often cause disruption for operators such as Network Rail; in urban areas vegetation aids storm water management by increasing infiltration and reducing run-off into urban sewers. Trees can 'scrub' the atmosphere and improve air quality and psychological well-being for inhabitants.Although data-sharing across the infrastructure sector is clearly advantageous, in practice a range of different barriers can stop this from happening. This KE Fellowship (MEDIATE) will demonstrate the added value that intelligent data-sharing can bring. It has two work programs with two different groups of non-academic partners who are not maximising the potential of their existing datasets for a range of different reasons. Overcoming the barriers to sharing their datasets will generate socio-economic benefits as outlined below. Work Program One focuses on green and blue infrastructure and will facilitate the creation of a scientific evidence base and new network to support Birmingham City Council's Natural Health Improvement Zones. MEDIATE will initiate the development of the evidence base, and set-up a network to maintain it long-term. This will have impact at local-scale by: providing the evidence base necessary to inform blue-green planning, ultimately to improve air quality and citizen health; and, at national and international scales by providing a case study of how to evaluate blue-green improvement schemes.Work Program Two focuses on the grey infrastructure and will facilitate cross-disciplinary data-sharing between infrastructure providers and the research community. MEDIATE will: use a pilot study with Network Rail (NR) to explore and overcome barriers to data-sharing then use this knowledge to expand the study across the infrastructure sector. This will have impact at local-scale by: improving the NR evidence base for meteorological/climatological decision-making; and at national and international scales by clearly articulating data gaps to NERC, and improving the sector-wide evidence base to facilitate a whole systems approach to weather and climate resilience.There is no better time to facilitate data sharing; 90% of the world's data has been generated in the last two years. The MEDIATE project will help business and organisations in the ERII community and more widely across the infrastructure sector to maximise the potential of their datasets to generate significant wealth for the UK economy and invaluable social benefits for its citizens.

数据支撑着我们的业务和经济，从灯柱到教授，任何人都可以收集数据。通过在公共和私营部门组织和企业之间共享这些数据集，有可能为英国经济及其公民产生显着的额外社会经济效益。对于收集类似数据集（例如气象数据）并面临类似世纪挑战和机遇的基础设施所有者和运营商来说，情况尤其如此。这些独立的企业和组织之间更好的知识交流和数据共享可以：改善运营程序;推动新的解决方案;并促进对空气质量，极端天气事件或长期气候变化等共同环境问题的联合应对。跨学科方法对于限制级联故障和在整个基础设施系统中建立复原力也至关重要。例如，电网故障可能会影响交通部门，使电气化列车停止或导致沿着街道或高速公路停电。或者一个大坝的崩溃可能会淹没附近的公路和铁路线。连锁故障在人口密度高和火车站或变电站等关键基础设施的城市地区特别具有破坏性。考虑蓝色和绿色基础设施对于整个系统方法也至关重要。例如，洪水和植被（线路上的树叶，大风后的碎片）经常会对网络铁路等运营商造成干扰;在城市地区，植被通过增加渗透和减少流入城市下水道的径流来帮助雨水管理。树木可以“净化”大气，改善空气质量，改善居民的心理健康。尽管基础设施领域的数据共享显然具有优势，但实际上，一系列不同的障碍可能会阻止这种情况的发生。这个KE奖学金（MEDIATE）将展示智能数据共享可以带来的附加值。它有两个工作计划，有两组不同的非学术合作伙伴，由于一系列不同的原因，他们没有最大限度地发挥现有数据集的潜力。克服共享数据集的障碍将产生如下所述的社会经济效益。工作方案一侧重于绿色和蓝色基础设施，并将促进建立一个科学证据库和新的网络，以支持伯明翰市理事会的自然健康改善区。MEDIATE将启动证据库的开发，并建立一个网络来长期维护它。这将在地方范围内产生影响：为蓝绿规划提供必要的证据基础，最终改善空气质量和公民健康;在国家和国际范围内，通过提供如何评估蓝绿改善计划的案例研究。工作计划二侧重于灰色基础设施，并将促进基础设施提供商和研究界之间的跨学科数据共享。MEDIATE将：与Network Rail（NR）合作开展试点研究，探索并克服数据共享的障碍，然后利用这些知识将研究扩展到整个基础设施行业。这将通过以下方式在地方范围内产生影响：改善用于气象/气候决策的自然资源证据基础;在国家和国际范围内，通过向NERC明确说明数据差距，并改善全部门证据基础，以促进对天气和气候适应力的整体系统方法。世界上90%的数据是在过去两年中产生的。MEDIATE项目将帮助ERII社区以及更广泛的基础设施领域的企业和组织最大限度地发挥其数据集的潜力，为英国经济创造巨大财富，并为其公民带来宝贵的社会效益。
