How can we make the data collected by the public sector more useful for both the Estonian society and every individual is the question asked at the Foresight Centre data conference “How could data serve us better?”.
Technical access restrictions, such as CAPCHAs and multiple download restrictions, are hindering the availability and refining of public information, shows the study “Trends in Access to Public Sector Information” that will be published by the Foresight Centre on Tuesday, 18 October.
According to the study “Trends in access to public sector information”, published by the Foresight Centre, the balance between the data protection requirements and the right to obtain public information is askew in Estonia. The implementation of the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has reduced the availability of data even further.
