Retail Business Datasafe

自2014年以来，位于伦敦大学学院、利物浦大学和牛津大学的消费者数据研究中心（CDRC-ULO）一直是为英国研究界获取、分析和提供消费者和商业数据的领先国际中心。截至2021年9月，我们通过公共数据门户和可信研究环境（TRE）支持了27，494名用户，在过去12个月内使用量增长了104%（受控/受保护数据增长121%，开放数据增长87%）。我们的目标是在ESRC计划过渡到DigitalFootprints数据服务期间保持这种性能。CDRC-ULO服务通过促进独特和尖端的研究，针对ESRC的国家优先事项和社会科学需求提供服务。截至2021年9月，CDRC-ULO数据已被203篇同行评审的学术论文引用。它还维持着一个具有全国重大社会和经济影响的基础设施。指示性的例子包括：为伦敦的“健康街道2021/2”规划提供不可或缺的数据，该规划支持21亿英镑的基础设施投资，以鼓励更积极、高效和可持续的出行方式;使用ee.cdrc.ac.uk与国家统计局（ONS）合作开发的种族估计工具（www.example.com）由威尔士公共卫生部开展，以检查在2019冠状病毒病大流行早期住院患者结局的种族差异;向英国政府联合生物安全中心（JBC）的流行病应对紧急提供当前小区域种族估计;与ONS/JBC/ADRUK一起参与“本地数据空间”倡议，以提供和评估英国新冠病毒“大规模测试”运动和随后的社会和经济开放（2021年ONS卓越研究奖的赢家）。这些案例表明，CDRC-ULO实现了使消费者/商业数据的用户能够提高社会科学研究的质量、数量和影响的目标，并预期了未来数字足迹数据服务的价值。CDRC-ULO继续在这些成功的基础上再接再厉，其使命是：（a）在确定、获取和准备战略消费者/商业数据资产方面保持国际领导地位;使这些数据资产可供查找、获取、互操作和重复使用，以用于创新专题研究;（B）最大限度地利用由Trusted Research支持的尖端研究开发的具有战略重要性的数据（c）根据UKRI和更广泛的英国创新/国家数据战略，通过使用消费者数据的培训和成功的研究应用，建立数据技能能力;（d）确保负责任地（合法、安全、公平和道德地）使用消费者/商业数据。这些基础设施，服务，能力建设和道德功能支持我们在数字足迹原型倡议的背景下对创新和服务提供的持续承诺。CDRC-ULO由ESRC资助，为外部用户提供全面的国际领先数据服务。为了最大限度地发挥其作为英国核心社会科学基础设施的作用，CDRC-ULO与其他ESRC中心（特别是UBDC和CDRC-Leeds）加强了数据采集和资产使用的协调，并与NCRM合作提供培训。CDRC-ULO继续在数据服务提供、开发和增强方面进行创新，同时也支持数字足迹原型的近期目标。

Since 2014 the Consumer Data Research Centre based at University College London and the Universities of Liverpool and Oxford (CDRC-ULO) has been a leading international centre for the acquisition, analysis and provisioning of consumer and business data to the UK research community. As of September 2021, we have supported 27,494 users through our public data portals and Trusted Research Environments (TREs), with usage growth of 104% (121% for Controlled/Safeguarded data and 87% for Open data) over the preceding 12 months. We aim to sustain this performance during ESRC's planned transition to the DigitalFootprints Data Service. The CDRC-ULO service delivers against ESRC's national priorities and needs for the social sciences by facilitating unique and cutting-edge research. As of September 2021 CDRC-ULO data have been cited in 203 peer reviewed academic papers. It also sustains an infrastructure that has nationally significant social and economic impact. Indicative examples include: provision of data integral to Transport for London's "Healthy Streets 2021/2" planning that supports £2.1 billion of infrastructure investment to encourage more active, efficient and sustainable travel modes; use of the Ethnicity Estimator tool (ee.cdrc.ac.uk) developed in partnership with the Office for National Statistics (ONS) by Public Health Wales to examine ethnic variations in outcomes for patients hospitalised in the early stages of the Covid-19 pandemic; emergency provision of current small area ethnicity estimates to the UK Government Joint Biosecurity Centre's (JBC) pandemic response; and participation with ONS/JBC/ADRUK in the "Local Data Spaces" initiative to deliver and evaluate the UK Covid-19 "mass testing" exercise and subsequent opening up of society and the economy (winner of a 2021 ONS Research Excellence award). Such cases demonstrate fulfilment of CDRC-ULOs objective of enabling the user of consumer / business data to develop the quality, quantity and impact of social science research and anticipates the value of the prospective DigitalFootprint data service. CDRC-ULO continues to build on such successes with the mission: (a) to sustain international leadership in the identification, acquisition and preparation of strategic consumer / business data assets; making these findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR) for innovative thematic research; (b) to enable best use of strategically important data that are developed using cutting edge research supported as appropriate by Trusted Research Environments (TREs) and digital platforms; (c) to build data skills capacity through training and successful research applications using consumer data, consistent with UKRI and wider UK Innovation / National Data Strategies; and (d) to ensure responsible (lawful, secure, fair and ethical) use of consumer / business data. These infrastructural, service, capacity building and ethical functions underpin our ongoing commitments to innovation and service delivery in the context of the Digital Footprints prototype initiative. CDRC-ULO is funded by the ESRC to deliver a comprehensive and internationally leading data service to external users. To maximise its role as core UK social science infrastructure, CDRC-ULO has pursued increased harmonisation of data acquisition and asset use with other ESRC centres (specifically UBDC and CDRC-Leeds) and has worked with NCRM on training provision. CDRC-ULO continues to innovate in data service provision, development and enhancement, while also supporting the immediate objectives of the DigitalFootprints Prototype.
