Where does the most downloaded data come from?

And which report available on the EDP is most popular?

The European Data Portal harvests the metadata of Public Sector Information available on portals, both national and regional/local, throughout Europe.
Currently there are 71 catalogues harvested, which provide a total amount of more than 640,000 data sets. When looking at the download statistics, since the launch of the portal on 15 November 2015 the most downloaded data is from the national Open Data Portal in the UK. However, this portal is closely followed by the data portal of the European Union where all the data from the EU institutions is centralised. Data sets from portals in Poland, France, Germany, Romania and Spain are also present in the top 10 most downloaded data sets.
