Wanting to keep data as open as possible while recognising that some data should not be completely open has led to the concept of a “data space”, where a community of individual s share and use data according to pre-set rules.

Our presenters Antje Kügeler and Simon Jirka helped participants to understand: what is real-time data; the different types of real-time data that are available on data.europa.eu; the necessary technology

Nüüd saate vaadata seansi salvestust. Pärast Lissaboni nõukogu assotsieerunud direktori ja teadustöötaja Charlotte van Ooijeni aruteludokumendi tutvustamist tutvustasid kaks eksperti praktikast ja akadeemilistest ringkondadest Frederika Welle Donker ja Antonin Garrone andmete nõudluse hindamise parimaid tavasid ning arutasid avatud andmete esitamise mõju mõõdukal aruteluvoorul.

Millions of people affected by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine have fled the country. In this crisis, providing reliable information is key to manage humanitarian aid and collect evidence to support the country. Monitoring the movement of refugees from Ukraine to other countries in Europe helps governments to make the necessary strategic decisions based on factual data. Since the beginning of the war, data.europa.eu joined the initiative and provides the central access point to information from national and supranational data portals on the effects of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Sanktsioonid on peamised vahendid, mille abil EL saab sekkuda, et ennetada konflikte või reageerida käimasolevatele kriisidele. ELi sanktsioonide kaart võimaldab jälgida kõiki mittekaristuslikke piiranguid, mida EL on kohaldanud Euroopa-väliste riikide suhtes, sealhulgas varade külmutamist, relvaembargosid või riiki lubamise piiranguid. Praegu on ELil üle 40 erineva sanktsioonirežiimi, millest mõned on saanud ÜRO Julgeolekunõukogu volituse, samas kui teised on ELis autonoomselt vastu võetud. Viimaste meetmete hulka kuuluvad ka piiravad meetmed seoses Venemaa sissetungiga Ukrainasse. ELi

On 19 märts 2022, Hackathon4Ukraine, kodeerimine sündmus toimus, väljakutseid andmete entusiastid üle kogu maailma arendada rakendusi, et aidata Ukraina elanikkonnast mõjutatud Vene sissetungi. Selle algatuse korraldasid Varssavi Tehnikaülikooli ja Londoni Imperial College ’i programmeerijad ja üliõpilased. Professionaalsete programmeerijate toel töötasid osalejad 24 tunni jooksul välja mobiili- või veebirakendused. Et hõlbustada mõjusate lahenduste loomist, olid kogu ürituse vältel kohal Ukraina probleemidega tegelevad vabatahtlikud, kes jagasid oma teadmisi toetust vajavatest kriitilistest
