Description
The National Policy Data Observatory (NPDO) is a government-led initiative, currently hosted at the CSIR, with the main objective to support data-driven decision making in government on various socio-economic interventions. The NPDO was initiated at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic by the DSI, supported by the CSIR, Statistics SA and South African Revenue Service. The NPDO leverages the CSIR’s high-speed networking infrastructure (SANReN) and high-performance computing infrastructure (CHPC) under the National Integrated Cyber Infrastructure System.
