What it does
Data.europa.eu brings together European public data with geospatial search, high-value-dataset tools and learning resources.
Use quick search for a topic or geospatial search for an area, then follow the original publisher’s record. The portal also has a separate high-value-dataset search, metadata-quality material and a licensing assistant. Aggregated metadata helps discovery; the publisher’s distribution is the place to establish the actual file, access conditions and reuse terms.
Strengths
- Separate geospatial and high-value-dataset discovery routes
