Insight into heritage datasets

The dataset descriptions registered with the NDE Dataset Register are harvested and brought together in a public triple store. The purpose of the dataset register is to increase the findability of datasets (APIs and files/dumps). If you are looking for a dataset, go to the triplestore of the Dataset Register and search the dataset descriptions via SPARQL. Read the explanation of the data concepts and the Requirements for Datasets for RDF classes and properties used.

Let's SPARQL!
