tiedonportaalit

Tiedonportaalit refer to information portals that provide access to a wide range of publicly available information and data. They are typically web-based platforms that aggregate and present information from various sources, making it easier for users to access and utilize.

The concept of tiedonportaalit originated in Finland, where they are used as a tool for transparency and openness in government operations. In this context, tiedonportaalit are used to make publicly available data and information about government activities, such as budgeting and procurement.

In a broader sense, tiedonportaalit can encompass various forms of digital platforms that provide information and resources to the public. They may include databases, APIs, and other types of datasets that are made available for reuse and further development.

Tiedonportaalit have several benefits, including improved access to information, increased transparency, and enhanced collaboration among stakeholders. They can also facilitate innovation and entrepreneurship by providing developers and researchers with access to data and resources.

Examples of tiedonportaalit include government data portals, research datasets, and crowdsourced information platforms. These platforms have been established in various countries and domains, often in response to the need for increased transparency and access to information.

By providing a centralized access point for information, tiedonportaalit can help to bridge the gap between data creators and users, promoting reuse and innovation.
