The State Data Agency (Statistics Lithuania) Presents Its 2025 Activity Report
The State Data Agency presents its 2025 Activity Report, reviewing the most important work carried out in the past year, achieved results, and directions strengthening data‑driven public governance.
For the Agency, 2025 was a year of maturity, growth, and focused transformation. Over the past year, the Agency consistently strengthened its role as an institution responsible for producing official statistics and coordinating state data governance. At the same time, organizational transformation continued, the State Data Lake ecosystem was expanded, the quality of integrated data was improved, and their accessibility increased.
One of the most notable achievements of 2025 was the further strengthening of the system for opening and reusing state data. According to the European Commission’s Open Data Maturity (ODM) assessment, Lithuania ranked 2nd in Europe. During the year, 229 new datasets were opened on the Lithuanian Open Data Portal, bringing the total number of opened datasets since the start of the project to 714. A large share of them was opened centrally through the State Data Lake.
Last year, the timely production of reliable official statistics was also ensured. All statistical activities planned for 2025 were completed within the set deadlines, and the statistical information provided to users was not only more comprehensive but also prepared more quickly. Official statistics were supplemented with new indicators and data sources; nationally prepared resident population projections began to be published; and statistics in the fields of demography, culture, agriculture, environment, business, and other areas were expanded.
In 2025, significant attention was also devoted to reducing the burden of statistical reporting. By using new data sources, advanced technologies, and innovative solutions, the statistical reporting burden on respondents was reduced by 7.6 per cent. This means not only more efficient processes but also a lower administrative burden for data providers.
Last year, the Agency also strengthened the state’s analytical capabilities. By the end of the year, the State Data Lake ecosystem comprised 517 information resources, 13,537 primary integrated tables, 1,814 projects, and 5,186 users. New analytical solutions, dashboards, and shared-use products were developed for public sector institutions, municipalities, academia, and business, helping to support evidence‑based decision‑making and more efficient use of data.
In 2025, considerable attention was also paid to data security, technological advancement, and capacity building. The Agency continued modernization projects, strengthened cyber security, expanded user training and consultations, and promoted data culture in the public sector and the education community.
The 2025 Activity Report reflects the Agency’s consistent efforts to build an advanced, data‑driven state in which data become a tool that creates real value for decision‑makers, institutions, and society.
