NEW: Commonwealth Data Trust Agreement Portal
NEW for Commonwealth of Virginia agencies: The new Commonwealth Data Trust Portal acts as a centralized platform where agencies can easily join the Commonwealth Data Trust and manage their agreements. By streamlining the ODGA agreement process, the portal significantly reduces the time required to complete agreements—from several days to just minutes. This efficient, user-friendly system is designed to break down data silos, enabling faster and more seamless collaboration across agencies for interagency data projects.
If you are an existing Data Trust Member an account should have been created for your Data Owner and Data Steward of your agency. If there is an additional account needed for access to the application please email odga@odga.virginia.gov.
