Overview
Big data allows for the design of better measures to promote sustainable use of energy and sustainable mobility. But how exactly? And how to collect, manage, and share this data?
Various Interreg Europe projects put forward good practices on data collection for better management, both in the area of energy and mobility. Some cities have gone a step further and made all collected data on public services available and accessible, not only to the concerned public services but also to the general public. Hoping to foster better energy and mobility management, and private sector innovation at the same time.
On 29 April from 14:30 to 16:00 CET, Interreg Europe is hosting webinar open data for smarter cities, providing more complete examples of open public data from several Interreg Europe projects. The webinar will cover topics such as;
