Open data initiative of the Government of Spain

AI not only consumes open data, it also enhances it: it improves quality, automates processes, detects patterns, and facilitates evidence-based decision-making. In the context of open government, this means greater transparency, increased citizen participation, and greater institutional efficiency.

Learn about the plan to boost sectoral data spaces and the calls launched to foster innovation and improve competitiveness and value creation in all economic sectors.

Categorizing datasets goes beyond assigning labels: it involves incorporating structured metadata that makes them understandable, accessible, and reusable. In the new episode of our podcast, we discuss data categorization and key standards at the global (DCAT), European (DCAT-AP), and national (DCAT-AP-ES) levels.

Open data initiatives have evolved thanks to the FAIR principles, which promote accessibility and reuse. However, in vulnerable contexts, an ethical approach is needed to prevent harm. The CARE principles complement the FAIR principles by prioritizing collective benefit, control, ethics, and accountability.

To truly harness the power of AI, installing software is just the beginning. Users must take key steps—not only to ensure security and legal compliance, but also to achieve results that are both efficient and trustworthy. Discover what it takes to make AI work for you!

The General Directorate of Data, under the Secretariat of State for Digitalization and Artificial Intelligence, was created with the mission of streamlining the management, sharing, and use of data across the various productive sectors of the Spanish economy and society. Here you will find information related to the projects we are developing.
