The invitation
What would make property information more useful in your work?
We are sharing an opportunity from the Open Property Data Association (OPDA) for people with experience across the property journey to help develop the Smart Property Data Trust Framework.
Help explain what information means in your work, which exceptions matter and what other people need to understand when you share it.
You do not need data-modelling expertise. Your professional experience and judgement can help shape the work.
Registration expresses interest, subject to OPDA review, not automatic membership or access.

A question from real work
Professional evidence informs review of the draft specification. This is work in development, not an adopted requirement.
A property transaction brings together information from many organisations. Repeated questions and differences in meaning make that information harder to use.
An address can help locate a property, but it does not by itself explain whether a report describes a building, a dwelling or a title record.
The Open Property Data Association (OPDA) is inviting professional experience to help make these distinctions clear. Help explain what information means in your work, which exceptions matter and what other people need to understand when you share it.

What you can contribute
Your professional experience belongs in the discussion.
You do not need to be a data modeller to help improve property information.
Contributors can explain the language and rules used in their work, bring authorised examples, review draft definitions and challenge assumptions.
The Open Property Data Association (OPDA) wants the definitions to reflect real work, including difficult cases.
Registering is an expression of interest. OPDA reviews each submission and confirms the next steps. It does not automatically give membership or access.
