Progress with the High Value Datasets project and its potential to enhance the economic impact of the weather value chain

In 2022 the European Commission has been monitoring and enforcing the transposition of the Open Data Directive in all EU Member States. Furthermore, it will identify a list of ‘high-value datasets’, whose re-use can bring particular benefits for society, the environment and the economy. Such data will have to be available for re-use for free, in machine-readable format, via APIs and, where relevant, as a bulk download. Meteorological data will likely represent an important part of high-value datasets. The Digital Europe Programme will support creation of common EU data spaces. Finally, two other new and upcoming pieces of legislation focus on easier sharing of data: the Data Governance Act (the Regulation was adopted by the co-legislators in May 2022) and the Data Act (the proposal was submitted to the co-legislators in February 2022).
