Geospatial trends report for 2022 published

The report Geospatial Trends 2022 - Opportunities for data.europa.eu from emerging trends in the geospatial community is now online.

Teamed up with 52°North, con terra is responsible for the geospatial aspects of data.europa.eu, the official portal for European data: Geoharvesting, gazetteer and the visualization of geodata and real-time data.

As part of the data.europa.eu mission to support European countries in increasing their open data maturity and promoting reuse, we monitor the adoption of new trends for publishing geospatial data and explore their relevance for data.europa.eu. The focus of this exercise is to identify opportunities from emerging trends in the geospatial community and to explore how data.europa.eu can support and benefit from the new ways in which geospatial datasets are offered.

The 2022 data.europa.eu report on opportunities for data.europa.eu from emerging trends in the geospatial community focusses on two trends that affect the European geospatial community:

1. modernising Inspire – moving towards open data
2. the role of geospatial information for smart cities
