Data With A Difference: How Chimnie's Community-Driven Approach Revolutionises Property Insight
What if you could tap into the knowledge of hundreds of thousands of people to improve your property data? That's exactly what we're doing at Chimnie, thanks to our unique platform, Chimnie.co.uk.
Chimnie.co.uk: More Than Just a Website
Chimnie.co.uk is our public-facing property research platform. It gets around 400,000 visits a month from people looking for information about UK properties. But it's much more than just a website - it's a vital part of our data quality strategy.
The Secret Sauce: Feedback, Feedback, Feedback!
We've built feedback loops into every part of Chimnie.co.uk. We actively encourage users to tell us if they spot anything wrong with our data - a new supermarket that's opened nearby, an incorrect property boundary, or even a valuation that seems off.
And we don't just collect that feedback; we use it.
How It Works: From User Input to Model Improvement
Here's the magic:
Users Submit Feedback: People on the ground, with real-world knowledge, tell us what's changed.
We Analyse: Our data science team analyses the feedback, looking for patterns and trends. We don't just fix individual errors; we look for the underlying causes.
We Improve Our Models: We use the insights from the feedback to refine our algorithms and improve our core data models. This means the improvements aren't just one-offs; they benefit all our clients.
We Give Back: We even pass these corrections back to Ordnance Survey.
Why This Matters: Better Data for Everyone
This community-driven approach to data quality delivers some huge benefits:
Constantly Improving Data: Our data isn't static; it's constantly being refined and updated based on real-world feedback.
Unique Insights: We get information that you simply can't get from traditional data sources.
Unbeatable Accuracy: The combination of our advanced technology and human insight leads to incredibly accurate property data.
Chimnie.co.uk is a perfect example of how Chimnie is doing things differently. We're not just relying on algorithms and official datasets; we're harnessing the power of the crowd to build the best possible property intelligence.
