KNH Data Availability Survey

Open mobility data mapping across Europe

This questionnaire seeks to map the availability of administrative data relevant to mobility research across Europe.

For the purposes of this survey, we refer to datasets that are collected or compiled at a national level, are accessible through a centralized source or institution (e.g., national agencies, national statistical offices, or national portals), and have nationwide coverage. The data may be collected by different actors (e.g., regions, federal states, or agencies) but should be accessible through a centralized national source, following an aligned methodology.

Please consider only data:

  • that is available in your country
  • that has a clear spatial reference
  • in its highest available spatial resolution (e.g., at building level rather than city or country level, if available)

Your answers will be stored anonymously.

How to use this survey
  • Tap a button in each row to select your answer.
  • Section 1 (teal): open/free data — select availability, then resolution.
  • Section 2 (amber): data via purchase or request — same structure.
  • Section 3 (blue): data needs — desired resolution & importance (none → very high).
Public administration data (open/free)

Is this dataset available as Open Government Data? If yes/partly, what is the finest spatial resolution you can access (spatial, temporal, thematic)?
