Declaration for the Future of the Internet – Public Open Data
 

On 27 April, the European Union, the United States of America, and
several international partners proposed a Declaration for the Future
of the Internet
[https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/library/declaration-future-internet].
In this proposal, they set out a vision and principles of a trusted
Internet and how to ensure that it is open, free, global,
interoperable, reliable, and secure whilst continuing to protect and
respect human rights online and across the digital world. 

The Connecting Europe Facility
[https://ec.europa.eu/inea/en/connecting-europe-facility] (CEF)
Telecom Programme contributes to this declaration and its vision by
supporting several projects in various Digital Service Infrastructures
[https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/taxonomy/term/http_e_f_fdata_ceuropa_ceu_fdr8_fDigitalServiceInfrastructure]
(DSI) for a faster and more efficient online public space and
cross-border services. DSIs are infrastructures that aim to enable the
delivery of networked services electronically, usually over the
internet, to provide trans-European interoperable services of common
interest for citizens, businesses, and public institutions. One
example of a DSI that contributes to this space is Public Open Data.
The CEF programme supports several projects centred around open data,
such as: 

 	* TRAFAIR [https://trafair.eu/] – a project aiming to develop
services that combine air quality, weather conditions, and traffic
flows to estimate the level of pollution resulting from traffic
conditions. The service has been deployed in six (6) European cities
and has been published on local and national data portals, which are
harvested by data.europa.eu. 
 	* SPOTTED [https://cef-spotted.eu/] – a project aiming to provide
an innovative solution based on the integration and customised
processing of open data collections, including Earth Observation data,
to monitor and support decision makers in the field of green area
management. The project integrates data provided by open data portals
from public administrations, such as data.europa.eu and Copernicus
[https://www.copernicus.eu/en], including real-time data captured by
sensors. 
 	* GreenMov [https://green-mov.eu/] – a project aiming to create
harmonised data models for green mobility and to advance the
development of green mobility services, including traffic flow
management, smart management of free-floating mobility.
