Demos of data mapping technologies that could serve as a locus of community collaboration

Education Analytics
Open source suite of tools for data mapping and landing data into Ed-Fi data model
GitHUB repositories

Python environment
Single simple configuration
Flexible with Ed-Fi data standard changes
Template for writing bundle for assessment
Branches correlating to each assessment
Comment: Like to see the bundling mapping difference source files to different end point, Python, templates, developer focus Answer: toolkit created for developers who understand Ed-Fi and data mapping
Question: Anything available for client-facing analysts?
- Answer: Districts want documented data governance - iterating makes it difficult. Variability in partner requirements makes crystallized documentation difficult
Make more visually appealing - Community can take template file and articulate

ESP Solutions

2 tools : DataSpec and DataPortal
Used as documentation tool for 7 state data collections
Load data spec via Spreadsheet format
Higher level and simpler tool as compared with EA tools
A documentation tooling to allow stakeholder and end user to generate their own reports
This is primarily a visual interface
It is a governance framework for SEAs/LEAs to create a data governance documentation suite - dozens of templates to follow to create a governance plan.

Agenda item: Progress on Admin Console roadmap (Jason) - postpone to next meeting
