Recently, the Knowledge Centre Data & Society published the ‘Rapport over Bevoegdheden in het delen van Gegevens. Automatische kentekenplaatherkenning (ANPR) als toepassingsgeval’. [Dutch only]. The report focuses on the distribution of competences in Belgium and exposes potential issues of data sharing using a sample case on ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition). ANPR cameras are intelligent cameras who recognise number plates automaticaly.
ANPR data are personal data since the data can be used to identify a driver. This makes the sharing of these data a difficult task as many elements need to be taken into account (such as security and privacy). Would you like more information on the obstacles of data sharing in Belgium? In this brAInfood, we take a closer look at the five main obstacles that hinder data sharing in Belgium. We also provide a number of recommendations to overcome these obstacles.
