The High-value dataset dashboard on the European Data Portal offers a new way to explore high-value datasets (HVDs) published across Europe. The dashboard provides an overview of datasets covered by the EU’s HVD Implementing Regulation , allowing users to view information by country, category, metadata quality and data format. It helps public authorities, businesses, researchers and citizens better understand the availability of some of Europe’s most impactful public-sector data. HVDs are a key element of the European strategy for data , which aims to make public-sector information more
The Copernicus Climate Data Store is one of Europe’s most important resources for climate information, providing free access to a wealth of data, tools and applications. Developed as part of the European Union’s Copernicus Climate Change Service , the platform brings together climate observations, reanalysis products, seasonal forecasts and climate projections in a single location. By offering reliable and accessible information on past, present and future climate conditions, the Climate Data Store supports researchers, policymakers, businesses and citizens in understanding climate-related
On Wednesday, 12 August, a total solar eclipse will be visible from parts of Europe and beyond, offering a rare opportunity to observe a natural phenomenon where the Moon obscures the Sun. Solar eclipses attract attention from scientists, educators and the public alike, as they provide insight into astronomical patterns and allow observers to experience the dynamics of the Earth-Moon-Sun system. Events like this highlight the importance of accurate data and forecasting to ensure safe and informed viewing. Astronomical bodies such as the European Space Agency and national observatories
How can satellite data help protect biodiversity? Join this data.europa academy webinar to discover how Earth Observation data supports biodiversity monitoring, environmental conservation, and evidence-based decision-making. Learn how satellite remote sensing and geospatial data can be used to detect ecological change, monitor habitats and ecosystems, and support conservation efforts around the world. Featuring Federica Marando (European Space Agency) and Matthes Rieke (52°North GmbH), the session will explore real-world applications of Earth Observation and demonstrate how openEO, open-source
GenerativeAI is rapidly transforming how data is used, analysed, and shared across Europe. By creating new content such as text, images, and code, generative AI systems depend heavily on large volumes of high-quality data. Open datasets, particularly those available through the European Data Portal , play a key role in supporting this innovation. As organisations across Europe explore AI-based solutions, the availability of reliable and accessible data has become essential for ensuring transparency, trust, and reproducibility. Across the European Union, institutions are increasingly
As summer reaches its peak across Europe, newly published and updated datasets on the European Data Portal offer valuable insights into seasonal trends affecting tourism, climate, and travel. These datasets provide information on how people move, where they travel, and how weather patterns influence summer activities. From tourism statistics to climate observations, open data helps users better understand the dynamics of the summer months and supports evidence-based decision-making across sectors. One key area of focus is tourism, which sees its highest activity during July and August
On Friday, 10 July, the data.europa academy hosted a webinar titled ‘Data without borders: the role of non-EU countries in European data initiatives’. The session brought together experts and participants to explore how cooperation with non-European Union countries supports transparency, innovation, and evidence-based policymaking. Speakers from Ukraine and Serbia shared their experiences in advancing open data ecosystems while aligning with European standards, highlighting why international collaboration is essential for a stronger European data landscape. During the session, participants
For more than 40 years, the European Capitals of Culture (ECoC) initiative has highlighted the richness and diversity of Europe’s cultural heritage. Established in 1985, the programme gives selected cities the opportunity to showcase their cultural assets through a year-long series of events with a strong European dimension. Beyond promoting arts and culture, the initiative aims to strengthen citizens’ sense of belonging to a shared European cultural space while fostering dialogue across borders. Over the years, the title has evolved into one of the European Union’s most visible cultural
Data is becoming a key resource for innovation, public services, and economic growth. To unlock its full potential, the European Commission launched the concept of Common European Data Spaces as part of the European Strategy for Data . These data spaces are designed to make data more accessible and reusable across borders and sectors while ensuring that users retain control over their data and that European rules on privacy, security, and competition are respected. The initiative focuses on strategic sectors including health, energy, mobility, agriculture, manufacturing, finance, public
The Serbian Open Data Portal is strengthening access to public sector information by bringing together datasets, application programming interfaces (APIs), and examples of data reuse in a single, user-friendly platform. Designed as a central access point for open government data in Serbia, the portal enables citizens, businesses, researchers and public authorities to discover, access and reuse information from a wide range of institutions. It also supports community engagement by allowing registered users to publish datasets and showcase examples of how open data can be used in practice
