Our data.europa portal offers a powerful tool for accessing and querying its vast repository of datasets: the SPARQL search . SPARQL, which stands for SPARQL Protocol and RDF Query Language, is a semantic query language designed for databases. It allows users to retrieve data stored in a Resource Description Framework ( RDF ) format more easily, which is possible with our datasets as all metadata is stored as RDF triples. The SPARQL tool on data.europa.eu provides a machine-readable interface that enables users to perform complex queries on the metadata of datasets available on our portal

The integration of open data into artificial intelligence (AI) systems is revolutionising various sectors across Europe. When it comes to open data, a symbiotic relationship is present. AI continues to benefit from access to open data, specifically high-quality open data, to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of AI models. At the same time, AI can analyse large volumes of open data and identify trends and patterns. Open data serves as a valuable resource for training AI algorithms, allowing them to process and analyse vast amounts of information. For instance, AI systems can leverage open
On 20 October 2024, the European Union celebrates the 9th European Statistics Day under the motto ‘Official Statistics, a window for understanding society’. This day highlights the role of official statistics in providing deep and reliable insights into society, which are essential for making informed decisions about the present and future. As we navigate an increasingly complex world, trustworthy, high-quality statistics have become even more crucial. Official statistics are produced with a commitment to independence, integrity, and accountability, adhering to international standards and best
1. How many projects are supported by the EU's cohesion policy? In the context of the EU's cohesion policy – funded by the European Regional Development Fund, the Cohesion Fund, and the European Social Fund – hundreds of thousand projects are funded in each 7-year financing period. In this article we look at how we count thematic allocations reported to projects (operations) based on the detailed Intervention field data and we provide interactive charts to explore the data and themes. We also look at some other methods to count projects, operations, and beneficiaries. 2. Counting ERDF/CF
The United Nations World Data Forum 2024 is taking place from 12 to 15 November, and is a premier global event dedicated to advancing the data and statistics agenda for sustainable development. This year’s forum will bring together over 20,000 data experts, policymakers, and stakeholders from around the world to discuss innovative solutions and foster global collaboration. The forum will feature high-level plenaries, thematic sessions, and interactive workshops covering a wide range of topics, including data innovation, partnerships, and the role of data in achieving the Sustainable
Humanitarian data encompasses a wide array of information collected to understand the needs of populations affected by humanitarian crises, the crisis context and the necessary response. It includes, for example, demographic details, health statistics, geospatial information, damage assessments and response metrics. This data plays a critical role in identifying needs, allocating resources, coordinating efforts, monitoring and evaluating interventions and advocating for affected populations. In a world facing increasingly complex crises – ranging from conflicts and climate issues to economic
On 25 October, from 10:00 to 11:30 CEST, the data.europa academy will host the workshop ‘ How to use open data for your research ’ where participants can learn how to apply open data independently. Although the workshop is tailored for academics and students, it is suitable for all open data enthusiasts who are interested in using open data. During the workshop, experts from the University of the Aegean in Greece will discuss both how to use open data in research and how researching open data itself can drive innovation and support decision-making. Additionally, experts from the Open Data
The National Interoperability Framework Observatory (NIFO) is an initiative by the European Commission aimed at enhancing digital cooperation across Europe. By providing a comprehensive overview of interoperability activities, NIFO supports the alignment of national frameworks under the Interoperable Europe initiative, previously the European Interoperability Framework. This alignment fosters seamless digital interactions and cooperation among public administrations in EU Member States. NIFO’s role extends beyond an observational one. It engages with 35 European countries to ensure that
