We need to enable greater data sharing across public and private boundaries, including compliance data, in order to unlock new insights and innovations. In our current era of climate crisis it is time to revisit the data policies and architecture of the past. This asymmetric information infrastructure has kept non-government researchers from exploring critical environmental questions, and impeded discoveries within and among government agencies themselves. Historically, environmental monitoring data and compliance data have been segregated, often kept in different data systems and managed and shared according to different rules. Government agencies collect a wide variety of environmental data, through their own monitoring and tracking programs as well as through compliance data collected and submitted by regulated entities.
