Using statistical data, the platform will provide interactive data dashboards, analytical models and simulations to enable decision-makers within Abu Dhabi Government to study the impacts of various policies on areas of the economy and society. It will also support the efficient use, management and integration of resources across government. In addition, the business community will be empowered to plan their strategies based on accurate statistical data.
The new platform requires data to be collected from government and private sector organisations and uses advanced algorithms to support automated data collection.
