The E-Government Development Index (EGDI) 2018 was divided into four subgroups (Very-High, High, Middle, and Low).
In this year’s edition, 40 countries scored “Very-High”, with EGDI values in the range of 0.75 to 1.00.
Denmark, Australia and the Republic of Korea are leading countries in e-government development.
The EGDI is a weighted average of normalised scores on the three most important dimensions of e-government: the Online Service Index (OSI), the Telecommunication Infrastructure Index (TII), and the Human Capital Index (HCI).
The OSI plays a main role in improving the EGDI.
