Oregon Agency Data Publication Inventory

Oregon law HB 3361 mandates state agencies to create and maintain inventories of their information resources. This enterprise-level inventory lists datasets from all state agencies, indicating their readiness for publication on Oregon's open data portal. It is maintained by the Chief Data Officer and was last updated in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze the relationship between 'Agency Name' and 'Data is/is not Publishable' to measure departmental open data compliance.
• Filter datasets by 'Geographic Granularity' and 'Open Data Publishing Status' to identify localized, publishable data assets.
• Use 'Data Contains PII/PHI' and 'Data Restrictions or Regulations' fields to audit datasets for privacy and regulatory constraints.
• Prioritize data publication efforts by sorting on 'Overall Priority' and 'Data Value' columns across agencies.
• Map 'Type of Existing Publication' against 'Frequency of Data Change' to assess the currency of already-public datasets.

Strengths

• Inventory includes metadata from all state agencies as required by statute ORS276A.350-374.
• Provides 20 distinct columns covering governance, classification, and publication status.
• Supports multiple machine-readable formats including CSV, JSON, XML, and RDF.

Limitations

• Sample data is unavailable, preventing assessment of data completeness and consistency.
• Key quantitative metrics like total row count and dataset size are unknown.
• License information for the inventory and the datasets it references is unspecified.
