Description
This is about the German FOI: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Informationsfreiheitsgesetz
There are only official statistics in Germany for the federal level (https://github.com/okfde/ifg-statistik). But there are none on state level (or maybe they are. So first do some investigation.)
But we have the exact number of requests for FragDenStaat: https://fragdenstaat.de/api/v1/
The task: Build a statistical model that estimates the number of foi requests (total, successful, failed) in Germany and per state/region/city.
@stefanw already did take a look into this and said that the numbers do not match at all. So maybe we have to clarify first what kind of data cleansing the administration is doing.
See also https://transparenzranking.de/ for regional disparities.
