Learn about how to measure data demand from the public sector in our
latest discussion paper
What data do public sector re-users need? The answer to this question
is critical both to facilitate data publication and to support
re-users from EU institutions and public authorities in Member States
in their policymaking, service provision and management. 

To what extent is this question already asked in open data
policymaking across Europe? Recently, data.europa.eu published a
discussion paper “Measuring data demand within the public sector
[https://data.europa.eu/sites/default/files/report/Discussion_Paper_Measuring_Data_Demand_Within_the_Public_Sector.pdf]”
that dives into this topic. This discussion paper reviews
state-of-the-art approaches and indicators to assess public
institutions’ needs as data re-users. This overview furthers the
discussion on methods and indicators to measure data demand to foster
demand driven data publication and support on data.europa.eu.

This discussion paper is the first of two aimed at fostering the
engagement of data.europa.eu re-users with the public sector. It sets
the stage for a one-year campaign featuring several blog posts to be
published on data.europa.eu and a DATA.EUROPA ACADEMY webinar on data
demand and re-use in the public sector
[https://data.europa.eu/en/academy/understanding-public-data-demand-public-sector]
on Tuesday, 29 March from 10:00-12:00 CET.
