On July 15, 2025, the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia launches an updated state Open Data Portal. It is a comprehensive system that ensures transparency in the work of government bodies and provides centralized access to open information for all citizens and organizations in the country. In the future, the functionality of the portal will be further developed and expanded, including at the suggestions of businesses.
According to Vladimir Voloshin, Director of the Department of Digital Development and Data Economy of the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia, openness of data today is not just access to information, but a working tool for business, public administration, development and training of artificial intelligence technologies.
"The launch of the new portal will be an important step in the development of the state's digital ecosystem, providing citizens and businesses with relevant and easy-to-use information. The updated version of the Portal has received more than 10 new functional solutions aimed at increasing user convenience, improving data visualization and compliance with modern security requirements," Vladimir Voloshin emphasized.
The key changes affected the updated interface design, expanded functionality for monitoring the maintenance of data set passports, personal accounts for users and information providers. The interactive map of the subjects of the Russian Federation provides a list of legitimate data providers. Users can now visualize data sets in graphic form, analyze statistics through BI tools, and receive prompt assistance through a chat bot based on artificial intelligence.
"When developing the updated Portal, we proceeded from the need to create a convenient space that will allow you to work effectively with open data, including having clear navigation. For this purpose, a full-text search is provided, which covers all sections of the system. Information providers are available in the registry with filters by name, type of organization, region and other parameters. Data sets are accompanied by statistics on views and downloads, the ability to filter and unload in machine-readable formats. In addition, we tried to make the Portal useful in terms of filling it with high-quality data sets, including the functionality of sending a request for the preparation and publication of in-demand data that is currently not presented on the portal," commented Vladimir Voloshin, adding that about five thousand data sets have been uploaded so far, and that in the future, it is planned to refine the functionality of the portal, taking into account the wishes of users and businesses.
The portal fully complies with the requirements of the Methodological Recommendations for the Publication of Open Data version 4.0, including the automation of the formation of data set passports, verification of format-logical control and integration with the Unified Identification and Authentication System.
The updated Open Data Portal is available at Date.gov.ru.
