The open data from the Estonian Sports Register is useful in studies focusing, for example, on the use of transport services, access to and use of sports facilities, general mobility patterns of residents, and the likelihood of interaction with other residents in different locations, particularly when the location or density of sports facilities is relevant to the research problem.
The Sports Register consists of four sub-datasets:
- Sports organizations sub-dataset, which includes information on the National Olympic Committee, sports federations, county sports associations, sports unions, and sports clubs (e.g., organization name, registry code, type of organization, membership in the Estonian Olympic Committee, address, geographic coordinates, number of participants);
- Sports schools sub-dataset (e.g., organization name, registry code, type of organization, membership in the Estonian Olympic Committee, address, geographic coordinates, number of participants);
- Sports facilities sub-dataset, containing information on sports objects and exercise locations (e.g., facility name, type of facility, owner information, year built, geographic coordinates, address);
- Coaches sub-dataset (e.g., coach’s name, county and municipality, year of birth, certificate number, certificate title, certificate validity period).
Some data (e.g., operational data of sports organizations, sports facility information) must be updated annually by data providers, while other data (e.g., coaches’ employment and certification information) must be updated within 30 days of any changes. The data is provided in XML and JSON formats.
