Given that the right data at the right time can saves lives, prevent disasters, and bring order to chaos, isn’t it terrible to know that over 60% of data are unknown, dormant or simply never used. We live in the age of big data, so much so, that we are drowning in it. But the data you need, the stuff that will fill out your final report, or persuade the bosses about where to take the project, or to help you solve the problem you have been struggling with for weeks; you may never find that.

Imagine every piece of data that entered, or arose in your organisation was tagged, simply and clearly, with a detailed description of what it is, who owns it, where it lives, who can view it, and when it was last updated. 

Imagine that all the information, from all of those tags, was indexed, sorted and filtered and organised into categories. So that the people who were authorised to use it, could find it easily, and those who were not authorised — did not know it existed. 

Datalign’s dynamic data catalogue is a system that is designed to collect and hold a record of all of your data resources.  Data finds its way into your organisation in a variety of ways. Perhaps it comes through sensors in the field, or data is submitted by outsiders or gathered by your own researchers. Maybe the data is generated on your own systems. No matter how data get there Datalign’s data catalogue will ensure that it is never lost.
