# Roadmap

- [Roadmap introduction](https://open-data-institute.gitbook.io/draft-in-progress-smart-data-innovation-guidebook/roadmap/roadmap-introduction.md): The Smart Data Roadmap describes how schemes have evolved in the past and may do so in the future.
- [Building the ecosystem](https://open-data-institute.gitbook.io/draft-in-progress-smart-data-innovation-guidebook/roadmap/building-the-ecosystem.md)
- [Research the landscape](https://open-data-institute.gitbook.io/draft-in-progress-smart-data-innovation-guidebook/roadmap/building-the-ecosystem/research-the-landscape.md): Research into the data landscape, and especially the issues that are trying to be solved, is the foundation of implementing Smart Data.
- [Convene the stakeholders](https://open-data-institute.gitbook.io/draft-in-progress-smart-data-innovation-guidebook/roadmap/building-the-ecosystem/convene-the-stakeholders.md): Data access initiatives like Smart Data require convening multiple stakeholders that are actively working together to tackle a collective challenge.
- [Assess the needs](https://open-data-institute.gitbook.io/draft-in-progress-smart-data-innovation-guidebook/roadmap/building-the-ecosystem/assess-the-needs.md): Assess policies, capabilities and other data infrastructure that can properly support the innovation programme.
- [Growing the ecosystem](https://open-data-institute.gitbook.io/draft-in-progress-smart-data-innovation-guidebook/roadmap/growing-the-ecosystem.md): In the medium-run, the Smart Data ecosystem will need to build the supply side by supporting organisations and complementary policy, and the demand side through innovation challenges and pilots.
- [Test and develop](https://open-data-institute.gitbook.io/draft-in-progress-smart-data-innovation-guidebook/roadmap/growing-the-ecosystem/test-and-develop.md): Test and develop the data infrastructure and relevant capabilities needed to fuel data-driven innovation within various Smart Data schemes and across sectors.
- [Scale the initiative](https://open-data-institute.gitbook.io/draft-in-progress-smart-data-innovation-guidebook/roadmap/growing-the-ecosystem/scale-the-initiative.md): Scale the implementation of Smart Data schemes, both within sectors to include additional and more complex components, and also cross-sector to merge and synchronise relevant aspects.
- [Evolving the ecosystem](https://open-data-institute.gitbook.io/draft-in-progress-smart-data-innovation-guidebook/roadmap/evolving-the-ecosystem.md): In the long run, the Smart Data ecosystem will require a robust framework for Monitoring, Evaluating and Learning in order to consistently deliver value, and should expand in new sectors and regions.
