The document outlines the Policy Compass project, which aims to objectively assess the impact of government policies using open data. The 36-month project is coordinated by Fraunhofer FOKUS and involves 7 organizations from 5 countries. It will use techniques like fuzzy cognitive maps, deliberation, metrics, visualizations, and argumentation to model policy impacts, discuss assessment approaches, define metrics, visualize trends, and structure policy discussions. The goal is to help evaluate policies in a data-driven way and reach consensus on measurement.
