automatic data publishing’
On Friday 20 JANUARY 2023, the webinar  ‘From theory to action:
automatic data publishing [https://youtu.be/zFIn9iK1DFo]’ was hosted
by data.europa academy [https://data.europa.eu/en/academy]. This
webinar was the fifth of a series of six trainings organised
by data.europa academy
[https://data.europa.eu/en/unlocking-benefits-open-data-dataeuropaeu] to
support data providers in the data publishing process. This webinar
focused on automatic data publishing and was presided over by Simon
Dutkowski and Torben Jastrow from Fraunhofer FOKUS
[https://www.fokus.fraunhofer.de/en.html] and Bart Hanssens
[https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/user/11393], Interoperability expert,
Interoperable Europe
[https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/interoperable-europe]. Open data
enthusiasts and representatives of various EU institutions and
European national public administrations participated in the webinar.

The webinar detailed on how to describe metadata with the DCAT-AP data
model with illustrations, emphasising its requirements. Thereafter,
automated data publishing was explained followed by the topics, pull
and push methods, harvesting and API respectively. Finally, best
practices related to automated publishing were shared. It was also
instructed that regardless of the choices made for the internal
management of datasets, all metadata published on data.europa.eu, must
be encoded using the DCAT-AP data model.

In the second part of the webinar, Bart Hanssens dove into data
publishing on data.europa.eu and the benefits for
local/regional/national portal owners. He highlighted that data
providers are not on their own and can find support from the EU data
portal team and other portal owners.

The webinar concluded with an interactive Q&A session and a summary
of the discussions.
