Open Repair Data Standard (openrepair.org)

It used to publish the `model` values but found that so few repair events collected `model` values and the scant values that did turn up were not very useful. The data is compiled and published on a shoestring budget, so resources are very limited.

The purpose of the data has evolved over years as a response to and a source for various investigations and campaigns that feed into the European Right To Repair campaign. It is also used by individual repair groups and networks to demonstrate their work and achievements - both environmental and social - in order to garner support and funding. The main use of the dataset is as an overview of a glimpse of community repair activity worldwide.

They specifically mention that:

The standard doesn't change often but the data is published annually.

The more that changes are absent for loger periods of time, the better the documentation works as a standard.

That's why it's called a standard, and nothing less.

Otherwise it's always not quite ready for adoption.

The data is collected from and reports on the activities of community repair events - Repair Cafes. It does not comprise any sort of guide to repairing devices. That is in the domain of iFixit. This dataset provides data points that feed into the European Right To Repair campaign. https://metabase.openrepair.org/dashboard/97-ora-data-overvi...
