The Science and Technology domain has almost double its amount of
datasets. The Justice domain still has the most datasets
Since the release of the first official version of the European Data
Portal (EDP) in February 2016, the number of catalogues harvested by
the EDP and the number of datasets harvested by the national portals,
has increased. The datasets are categorised into 13 domains.

Some national portals use a different categorisation requiring the
mapping to be continuously improved and updated. Currently,
approximately 70% of the datasets harvested are mapped to the 13
domains of the EDP.

As the number of datasets on EDP is increasing since end February, it
is interesting to know which of these data domains is increasing the
most. It appears that the Science and Technology domain has almost
doubled the amount of datasets referenced on the Portal since the
beginning of the year. There are 5 other categories which show an
increase of over 30% as well. Interesting to see, it that the
Agriculture domain shows a decrease. This can be explained partly by
the fact that one of the national portals has removed this data from
its portal, or has relocated data sets from this domain to another.
