The Better Regulation Delivery Office BRDO has developed an interactive dashboard that analyses how Ukrainian government authorities comply with the CMU Resolution No. 835 on open data. The tool provides overall statistics, the level of compliance by data holders, and the popularity of specific datasets based on the number of downloads.
The CMU Resolution No. 835 “On Approval of the Regulation on Datasets to Be Published in the Form of Open Data” defines which data must be published by government bodies, how often it should be updated, and in what format. All such datasets should be available on the Unified State Open Data Web Portal.
The BRDO dashboard shows which government agencies publish and update their open datasets on the Portal and how regularly they do so. As of December 2024, the research revealed the following results:
- 66% of the required datasets have been uploaded to the Open Data Portal;
- 49% of the published datasets are updated on time;
- 35% of data holders have published all required datasets;
- Only 14% of data holders update all their datasets on time.
“We created this dashboard to draw attention to how well agencies meet open data publication requirements. It’s now easier to see what data is available, how often it’s updated, and which datasets are in high demand. We encourage data holders to publish more datasets, and this dashboard can serve as a strong motivator,” said Ihor Samokhodskyi, Head of the ICT Sector at BRDO.
The most downloaded datasets on the Open Data Portal come from the following agencies:
- Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine – 135,400 downloads
- National Health Service of Ukraine – 70,021 downloads
- State Tax Service of Ukraine – 38,249 downloads
- State Service of Ukraine for Transport Safety (Ukrtransbezpeka) – 30,672 downloads
- State Service of Ukraine for Geodesy, Cartography and Cadastre – 25,493 downloads
The most popular dataset by number of downloads is “Information on Vehicles and Their Owners”, published by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, with 86,000 downloads. It is regularly updated and contains valuable information for drivers, car owners, and anyone interested in this field.
The BRDO analysis covers only central-level government agencies. This study did not include local self-government bodies, other local-level spending units, or datasets from the category ‘All spending units (according to competence). ’
