In 2020, 79 percent of UN Member States had a national open government data (OGD) portal, up from 47 percent in 2018. In addition, 59 percent of countries had a national OGD policy as of the last recorded period.

The National Broadband Data represents coverage information across Canada for existing broadband service providers with their associated technology types. The coverage information is aggregated and deployed over a grid of hexagons, which cover areas of roughly 25 square km each. Broadband Internet service availability is provided for download/upload speed markers (5/1, 10/2, 25/5 and 50/10 Mbps) where more than 75% of total dwellings covered within the hexagon have access to broadband service offerings meeting these markers. In order to improve the granularity of the broadband data, ISED and the CRTC are providing aggregated and anonymous broadband services data based on the pseudo-household statistical model, hence achieving higher precision in depicting the broadband Internet service availability. This information is available below under the "NBD PHH Speeds" resource. For more information on the pseudo-household statistical model, refer to the Pseudo-Household Demographic Distribution dataset. A representation of broadband services per 250m road segments is now available for download under the “NBD Roads” resource. To generate this dataset, the NBD PHH Speeds information was projected over the nearest road arc from Statistics Canada’s Road Network File, and those roads were spliced in approximately 250m segments. NEW: The data has been augmented to include new presentation layers as published on the National Broadband Map.

The data were collected during the user-centered analysis of usability of 41 open government data portals including EU27, applying a common methodology to them, considering aspects such as specification of open data set, feedback and requests, further broken down into 14 sub-criteria. Each aspect was assessed using a three-level Likert scale (fulfilled - 3, partially fulfilled - 2, and unfulfilled – 1), that belongs to the acceptability tasks. This dataset summarises a total of 1640 protocols obtained during the analysis of the selected portals carried out by 40 participants, who were selected on a voluntary basis. This is complemented with 4 summaries of these protocols, which include calculated average scores by category, aspect and country. These data allow comparative analysis of the national open data portals, help to find the key challenges that can negatively impact users’ experience, and identifies portals that can be considered as an example for the less successful open data portals.

NVIS is a compilation of several surveys of varying scales, that were re-coded and re-attributed for the National Vegetation Information System (NVIS). This forms Theme 3 of the National Land & Water Audit of Australia, 2000 (NLWRA2000). The goal of the vegetation component (Theme 3) of the Audit is to 'Develop a national information system that provides for easily accessible and nationally consistent data on the extent and condition of Australia's vegetation, thereby improving our ability to make better natural resource management decisions.' Work for NVIS involved some line-work changes as well as creation of an attribute data-base for each original survey data set. For each survey a 'PRE1750' and an 'EXTANT' dataset was produced. The 'PRE1750' or 'pre-clearing' dataset represents, in theory, the vegetation that existed in that particular survey region before the arrival of the white man. In all, the surveys attributed to NVIS standard in the NT, this 'PRE1750' coverage was taken to be the original survey coverage produced. The 'EXTANT' or present day dataset represents, in theory, the present day (eg year 1998) vegetation coverage. This was produced by updating the 'PRE1750' dataset with cleared or modified vegetation. This dataset was recently renamed as NVIS_2007.

The NBI System is the collection of bridge inspection information and costs associated with bridge replacements of structurally deficient bridges on and off the NHS. This data is collected under the auspices of the National Bridge Inspection Standards (NBIS) as prescribed by law. The NBI System collects the information that is used to determine eligibility for NHS projects, performance measure reporting, NHS penalty determination, and reporting to Congress. It supports oversight of the NBIS through various report tools, and provides data reporting that supports agency strategic goals.

This dataset is now retired, please refer to the Disability Services National Minimum Data Set – Annual dataset. The purpose of the Disability Services National Minimum Data Set (DS NMDS) collection is to facilitate the annual collation of nationally comparable data about National Disability Agreement (NDA) funded services, and to obtain reliable, consistent data with minimal load on the disability services field. Under the NDA, the Disability Administrators in all Australian jurisdictions are responsible for ensuring that DS NMDS information will be comparable across all jurisdictions and years.

The Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD) from The National Map (TNM) defines the perimeter of drainage areas formed by the terrain and other landscape characteristics. The drainage areas are nested within each other so that a large drainage area, such as the Upper Mississippi River, is composed of multiple smaller drainage areas, such as the Wisconsin River. Each of these smaller areas can further be subdivided into smaller and smaller drainage areas. The WBD uses six different levels in this hierarchy, with the smallest averaging about 30,000 acres. The WBD is made up of polygons nested into six levels of data respectively defined by Regions, Subregions, Basins, Subbasins, Watersheds, and Subwatersheds. For additional information on the WBD, go to https://nhd.usgs.gov/wbd.html. The USGS National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) service is a companion dataset to the WBD. The NHD is a comprehensive set of digital spatial data that encodes information about naturally occurring and constructed bodies of surface water (lakes, ponds, and reservoirs), paths through which water flows (canals, ditches, streams, and rivers), and related entities such as point features (springs, wells, stream gages, and dams). The information encoded about these features includes classification and other characteristics, delineation, geographic name, position and related measures, a "reach code" through which other information can be related to the NHD, and the direction of water flow. The network of reach codes delineating water and transported material flow allows users to trace movement in upstream and downstream directions. In addition to this geographic information, the dataset contains metadata that supports the exchange of future updates and improvements to the data. The NHD is available nationwide in two seamless datasets, one based on 1:24,000-scale maps and referred to as high resolution NHD, and the other based on 1:100,000-scale maps and referred to as medium resolution NHD. Additional selected areas in the United States are available based on larger scales, such as 1:5,000-scale or greater, and referred to as local resolution NHD. For more information on the NHD, go to https://nhd.usgs.gov/index.html. Hydrography data from The National Map supports many applications, such as making maps, geocoding observations, flow modeling, data maintenance, and stewardship. Hydrography data is commonly combined with other data themes, such as boundaries, elevation, structures, and transportation, to produce general reference base maps. The National Map viewer allows free downloads of public domain WBD and NHD data in either Esri File or Personal Geodatabase, or Shapefile formats. The Watershed Boundary Dataset is being developed under the leadership of the Subcommittee on Spatial Water Data, which is part of the Advisory Committee on Water Information (ACWI) and the Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC). The USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), along with many other federal agencies and national associations, have representatives on the Subcommittee on Spatial Water Data. As watershed boundary geographic information systems (GIS) coverages are completed, statewide and national data layers will be made available via the Geospatial Data Gateway to everyone, including federal, state, local government agencies, researchers, private companies, utilities, environmental groups, and concerned citizens. The database will assist in planning and describing water use and related land use activities. Resources in this dataset:Resource Title: Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD).
