title: Spending Data Handbook - Draft Version
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
After four days of intense writing, discussions and editing, it is now
|
|
almost midnight: our handbook sprint is over. What we have produced is
|
|
an introduction to the use of data for budget- and spending-focussed
|
|
advocacy. We've produced a high-level overview that covers a variety of
|
|
topics, from the context in which data can be used, to the acquisition,
|
|
processing and presentation of budget and spending data.
|
|
|
|
Of course, four days means we have only been able to lay the groundwork:
|
|
we would still like to add more concrete tips and tricks, examples and
|
|
in-depth tutorials on a few technologies and tools that relate to
|
|
financial information.
|
|
|
|
So, here it goes the first draft:
|
|
|
|
<strong><a
|
|
href="http://openspending.org/resources/handbook/ch001_introduction.html">Spending
|
|
Data Handbook</a></strong>
|
|
|
|
Of course, this can merely be the start of a discussion. Please feel
|
|
free to contribute directly in the [editing
|
|
environment](http://okfn.booktype.pro/spending-data-handbook), or via our
|
|
[mailing list](http://lists.okfn.org/mailman/listinfo/openspending).

|
|
We hope you enjoy the read!
