Optimise Prime

Optimise Prime has gathered data from over 6,000 Electric Vehicles (EVs) driven for commercial purposes through three trials. The project also implemented a range of technical and commercial solutions aiming to accelerate the transition to EVs for commercial fleet operators, while helping GB’s distribution networks plan and prepare for the mass adoption of EVs. The project aimed to reduce the impact of EVs on distribution networks and ensure security of electricity supply while saving money for electricity customers, helping the UK meet its clean air and climate change objectives.The project consisted of three trial workstreams (WS): WS1, investigating the impact of commercial vehicles charging at homes WS2, monitoring and optimising commercial vehicles charging in depots WS3, which uses private hire vehicle (PHV) journey data to model the impact of these vehicles on the distribution network. The trial period for WS3 began in August 2020, with WS1 and WS2 trials commencing on 1 July 2021. All trials concluded at the end of June 2022.Optimise Prime is sharing the project datasets by making them publicly available to the wider electricity, fleet and PHV industry to optimise their vehicle electrification plans. DNOs, academics and interested parties will be able to utilise this anonymised data created by the project for further research, analysis and forecasting. Along with the datasets, an introductory document is available below, it provides information on the content of those datasets, guidance on how to interpret each data field and instructions on how to access the data.Over the course of the trials, the project has collected and analysed data from a wide range of sources in order to carry out a wide range of experiments. The key datasets collected and used in analysis are available here. These includes: WS1 – Return-to-Home Trials · Charge Point (CP) session data· Vehicle telematics journey data WS2 – Depot Trials · Details of the assets and asset types at each depot· Charging data gathered from the CPs at each depot· Building load measurement data from each depot· Details of the profiled connections, flexibility trials and smart charging profiles trialled at each depot WS3 – Mixed Trials · PHV charging demand overlaid onto substation available capacity data aggregated by borough The project is not able to release all data collected and used by the project, as some are commercially confidential to the project partners (such as precise volumes of Uber trips or substation capacities), contains potentially personally identifiable information (such as precise start and end locations of home charging journeys or Uber trips) or were purchased by the project under license (e.g. charge point (CP) locations, weather data and off-street parking data).Access the data via this link: https://ukpowernetworks.opendatasoft.com/explore/dataset/optimise-prime/information/ The figure below shows how the datasets are built:

Cycling Infrastructure Database

London’s Cycling Infrastructure Database (CID) is the world’s largest and most comprehensive database of cycling infrastructure, containing comprehensive details of cycling infrastructure in the Capital. The CID is intended to address barriers to cycling by providing Londoners with clear and accurate information about cycling infrastructure, helping them plan cycle journeys with confidence. The CID is a core part of our Cycling Action Plan , which sets out how TfL, boroughs and others will work together to make London the world’s best big city for cycling.To create the database, TfL have surveyed every street in every London borough to collect information on over 240,000 pieces of infrastructure, covering an area of 1,595 square kilometres.The database also contains 480,000 photographs of cycling infrastructure, allowing users to see exactly what can be found on street. For example, cycle parking users will be able to see what type of parking is available. TfL collected data of 146,000 cycle parking spaces across London, as well as gathering information on 2,000km of cycle routes and 58,000 wayfinding signs.An update to TfL's own Journey Planner means that people using the planner for cycle journeys can now see the nearest and most convenient place to park for every journey. Third party developers will be able to use the data for their own journey planning tools, which will make it simpler for Londoners to plan cycle journeys using their preferred apps. We’re excited to see how developers can use the data to help make cycling in the Capital easier, and to kick-start this we will invite app developers to a hackathon this autumn to see how this data can be maximised to benefit people cycling.As well as making it easier for Londoners to plan cycle journeys, the database will help TfL and boroughs to plan future cycling investment. For example, the database has already been used to develop TfL's Cycle Parking Implementation Plan, which sets out how TfL will work with partners across the capital to deliver 50,000 cycle parking spaces over the next six years where they are needed most, to meet the growing demand for safe places to park cycles.The following types of asset are included in the database: Cycle lanes and tracks – including whether they are segregated or painted lanes Cycle parking, including the type and capacity of parking Signalised crossings for cycles Restricted route - Modal filters and traffic gates which allow cycles to pass but restrict car traffic Traffic calming, including the location of all speed humps in Greater London Advanced stop lines – boxes at junctions for people cycling Signals - early-release signals at junctions Signage - Signed cycle routes and other wayfinding Restricted Points – points where people cycling will have to dismount Paths through parks and other green spaces that can, and cannot, be cycled on

GiGL Open Space Friends Group subset

Update October 2025: GiGL are no longer providing this dataset as Open Data. We are currently reviewing our approach to publishing open data, and this includes how the datasets have been used, and the associated impacts in relation to our mission, income and reputation. We will create new outputs based on the review findings by the end of 2025. Please get in touch if you have any questions. Introduction The GiGL Open Space Friends Group subset provides locations and boundaries for selected open space sites in Greater London.The chosen sites represent sites that have established Friends Groups in Greater London and are therefore important to local communities, even if they may not be accessible open spaces, or don’t typically function as destinations for leisure, activities and community engagement*.Friends Groups are groups of interested local people who come together to protect, enhance and improve their local open space or spaces.The dataset has been created by Greenspace Information for Greater London CIC (GiGL). As London’s Environmental Records Centre, GiGL mobilises, curates and shares data that underpin our knowledge of London’s natural environment. We provide impartial evidence to support informed discussion and decision making in policy and practice.GiGL maps under licence from the Greater London Authority. *Publicly accessible sites for leisure, activities and community engagement can be found in GiGL's Spaces to Visit dataset Description This dataset is a sub-set of the GiGL Open Space dataset, the most comprehensive dataset available of open spaces in London. Sites are selected for inclusion in the Friends Group subset based on whether there is a friends group recorded for the site in the Open Space dataset.The dataset is a mapped Geographic Information System (GIS) polygon dataset where one polygon (or multi-polygon) represents one space. As well as site boundaries, the dataset includes information about a site’s name, size, access and type (e.g. park, playing field etc.) and the name and/or web address of the site’s friends group.GiGL developed the dataset to support anyone who is interested in identifying sites in London with friends groups - including friends groups and other community groups, web and app developers, policy makers and researchers - with an open licence data source. More detailed and extensive data are available under GiGL data use licences for GIGL partners, researchers and students. Information services are also available for ecological consultants, biological recorders, community groups and members of the public – please see www.gigl.org.uk for more information.

Access to Public Open Space and Nature by Ward

Update October 2025: GiGL are no longer providing this dataset as Open Data. We are currently reviewing our approach to publishing open data, and this includes how the datasets have been used, and the associated impacts in relation to our mission, income and reputation. We will create new outputs based on the review findings by the end of 2025. Please get in touch if you have any questions. Percentage and count of residential households within Wards, with access to at least one open space by specified type of space, and the amount/proportion of each ward that is open space with and without public access.Also the proportion of homes located within public open space, and access to nature boundaries.Areas of deficiency in access to nature are defined as built-up areas more than one kilometre actual walking distance from an accessible Metropolitan or Borough Site of Interest for Nature Conservation (SINC).The analysis of public open space is based on access to designated green/public open space and therefore excludes farmland, and other types of green space outside of the public open space category definitions within the London Plan.These measures take no account of additional public rights of way, that can also give the same benefits as more formal open spaces.Homes further away than the maximum recommended distance are considered to be deficient in access to that type of public open space (POS).In 2015 the recommended distances for each type, are:R - Regional Parks = 5km maxM - Metropolitan Parks = 2.4km maxD - District = 1.2km maxLSP - Local, Small and Pocket parks = 400 metres max.For a definition of public open space types refer to the London Plan 2011, Table 7.2 http://www.london.gov.uk/priorities/planning/londonplan Higher category parks also perform the function of lower category parks, e.g. a Metropolitan Park also functions as a District Park and a Local Park.The distance is actual walking distance (taking into account fences, railway lines, rivers etc.) to reach access points of parks and other, generally managed, sites, usually with some facilities.This measure takes no account of the quality or facilities at each open space.No account of local, small and pocket parks outside the Greater London boundary has been made, though all regional, metropolitan and district parks in the vicinity of London have been included.Residential addresses provided by Ordnance Survey.Wards in the City of London have been merged to create one area in 2013.2014 ward boundaries only affect three boroughs in which wards changed in 2014 - Hackney, Tower Hamlets, and Kensington and Chelsea. All other ward boundaries in London remain unchanged.Visit the Greenspace Information for Greater London (GiGL) website here.This dataset is licenced under Open Government Licence (OGL v2).
