Measuring data demand in the public sector

This report published by the European Data Portal (EDP) covers the following topics.  

What are the needs of open data re-users of public sector institutions in Europe? This question is key to facilitate the publication of open data and support for re-users of EU institutions and Member States' public authorities based on their needs for policy-making, service delivery and organizational management. 

 This discussion paper provides an overview of the state of existing methods and indicators in the European open data landscape to assess the needs of public institutions as data re-users. 

 This overview serves as a basis for a discussion with public sector stakeholders on appropriate methods and indicators for measuring the demand for data from public institutions to encourage the publication of demand-driven data.
