Regional Data Advisory Committee

The Regional Data Advisory Committee (RDAC) is a top-level advisory committee consisting of data experts representing the public, private, nonprofit, and academic sectors. The members evaluate and advise the Commission and MORPC staff on matters of regional importance pertaining to data. The RDAC vision is to make Central Ohio a leader in using data to improve the quality of life for all residents.

This committee was formed based on the recommendations of a 2015 Regional Data Task Force. Read the full Regional Data Task Force Report.
