The European Data Portal harvests the metadata of Public Sector Information available on public data portals across European countries. Information regarding the provision of data and the benefits of re-using data is also included. As of August 2022, the portal has nearly 200 catalogs from nearly 40 countries, amounting to approximately 1.5 million datasets.
