* [Applying for, and being, a MyData Operator](https://www.informationanswers.com/2021/02/03/applying-for-and-being-a-mydata-operator/)

Ian Henderson talks about leading the application process for two MyData Operators [Tru.net](https://www.tru.net/) and [DataYogi](https://datayogi.me/) .

> The core of the awards process is an online questionnaire that each photo-operator completes which provides background on the applying organisation, and then allows them to describe their business in terms of the shared MyData Operator Reference model shown below. This reference model, described in detail in the MyData Operators white paper, is not prescriptive; it is more a useful way to ensure each applying operator frames their responses so that they become easier to understand and assess.
