New Look for DASH + Data Governance Improvements

We’re excited to announce the launch of new forms, expanded reference information, and key improvements to the Data @ CMU site, all of which aim to make your data interactions more efficient and reliable.

Enhanced Data Access Through New Forms

A new Data Access form simplifies the process of requesting the information you need. The form guides you through your request, ensuring you can quickly and accurately specify your data requirements. If you're uncertain about the data you need, we also offer a Data Access Consultation form. In addition, our new Data Quality form provides a straightforward way to report data inconsistencies or issues, helping us maintain the accuracy and integrity of our information.

Also, look out for information regarding the data quality issues we've identified. This will support your analysis efforts.

A Reimagined Data Analytics Sharing Hub (DASH)

Our revamped Data Analytics Sharing Hub (DASH) introduces a variety of new features aimed at enhancing your data experience. With a clearer dashboard layout, you can easily identify access levels thanks to a lock/unlock symbol, which provides immediate visual cues regarding sharing permissions.

The updated landing page includes search and filter options that make it simple to find the dashboards and information that matter most to you.

Additionally, we've embedded links to external data sources within DASH, further simplifying your data engagement by giving you quick access to related information.
