The EU Open Data Directive’s main goal is to increase the availability of public sector data for re-use as raw material for innovation across all economic sectors. The Directive introduces the concept of High Value Datasets (HVDs). HVDs are datasets whose re-use is associated with important benefits for the society and economy.

Everything on this page comes from Creative Commons’s own submissions to the European Commission — we have added nothing and interpreted nothing.
