Data formats

Data files are typically exchanged when a council starts a new contract with a supplier. Here are common formats that make this process easier.

Rounds

Rounds data should be formatted into a CSV file matching the format defined by the Rounds table schema. The CSV fields are listed below:

name type required description
UPRN integer true The Unique Property Reference Number for the location.
Service string true The type of service that is provided. e.g. Recycling
Schedule string true For example, alternate weekly on Monday.
Round string true An identifier for a round, or set of properties visited by a crew.
Round sequence integer false The order of collections in the round.
Container string false The containers assigned to the property or place.

The table definition is also available as a JSON Table schema.
