These statistics were used as the basis for formulating a global open source activity index. Countries are ranked by overall activity and scores are also provided to indicate the level of open source adoption in government and industry. Europe ranks high in the global index, which lists France, Spain, and Germany as the countries with the highest level of open source activity. The United States came in ninth place. The following is a list of the top ten and their respective scores:

France (1.35)
Spain (1.07)
Germany (1.05)
Australia (1.04)
Finland (1.03)
United Kingdom (1.00)
Norway (0.95)
Estonia (0.89)
United States of America (0.89)
Denmark (0.79)

The data can be explored interactively in a Web-based map made available by Red Hat. You can click individual countries to see their ranking and scores. The raw data and published reports are available from the same website.
