High-value dataset dashboard: Helping users explore Europe’s most
valuable open data
The High-value dataset dashboard
[https://data.europa.eu/en/hvd-dashboard] on the European Data Portal
offers a new way to explore high-value datasets (HVDs) published
across Europe. The dashboard provides an overview of datasets covered
by the EU’s HVD Implementing Regulation
[https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/reg_impl/2023/138/oj/eng], allowing
users to view information by country, category, metadata quality and
data format. It helps public authorities, businesses, researchers and
citizens better understand the availability of some of Europe’s most
impactful public-sector data. 

HVDs are a key element of the European strategy for data
[https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/open-data], which
aims to make public-sector information more accessible and reusable.
These datasets have significant potential to generate social,
environmental and economic benefits and are organised into six
thematic categories: geospatial, earth observation and environment,
meteorological, statistics, mobility, and companies and company
ownership. The new dashboard enables users to navigate these
categories and access related datasets directly from the portal. 

The dashboard also strengthens transparency around open data
publication in Europe. By highlighting metadata quality, available
formats and country-level contributions, it supports better
understanding of how HVDs are being made available for reuse. In line
with the HVDs Regulation, many of these datasets are provided free of
charge, in machine-readable formats and, where applicable, through
application programming interfaces, making them easier to access and
integrate into innovative services. 

Whether you are looking for data to support research, develop new
applications or monitor the implementation of open data policies, the
dashboard provides a valuable starting point. Explore the HVD
dashboard today and discover the growing collection of high-value
datasets available through the European Data Portal.
