You are welcome, Dr. Niemann.

In the meantime, I realized I could do something interesting with the 
catalog having chopped it up into fields.

There are keywords (dct:subject in Dublin Core parlance). They are in a 
comma delimited list (like a CURI - Compact URI, although they don't 
have a namespace).  But there is no reason not to make a list of 
individual terms by Agency.  The catalog also contains "Custom Metadata" 
from the Agencies.  I collated that too.  In addition, I was doing some 
work with the FACA Database and made a list of identifiers for 2011 (it 
has the Agency URLs, Acronym, etc.).

Spreadsheets are in 
http://www.rustprivacy.org/2013/egov/catalog/DataDotGovCatalog.zip

If you just want to take a quick look ...

Jeanne, Thank you. The Data.gov Catalog and a specific example (Federal 
Data Consolidation Initiative) and the New Data.gov Catalog (thanks to 
Gannon) and a specific example (USGS Sediment Texture Database) using 
the same Data Platform (Spotfire) for the catalogs and the examples are 
found at:

Hi all--

Here's the way to download the entire catalog.  The Data.gov catalog 
(exclusive of geospatial data) can still be accessed at 
https://explore.data.gov/Other/Data-gov-Catalog/pyv4-fkgv You can use 
the export button at the top right to be able to download it in a 
variety of formats.

The API is another way to access the entire catalog.

We are exploring other ways to make the newly integrated catalog available.

Thanks, Jeanne. Please send me the link to download the entire and new 
data catalog.

I am getting ready for: On Thursday, May 23^rd at 2:00PM ET, Federal 
Chief Information Officer Steven VanRoekel will host a conference call 
to discuss the 1-yr Anniversary of theDigital Government Strategy 
<http://whitehouse.gov/digitalgov> and ongoing Administration efforts to 
drive innovation through open data and other initiatives.

Brand--

As John pointed out, the entire and new catalog (as of this morning) is 
available at https://catalog.data.gov/dataset <http://catalog.data.gov/>

The catalog at 
https://explore.data.gov/Other/Data-gov-Catalog/pyv4-fkgv is our 
previous catalog of "raw" data that is not part of the larger catalog above.

The number differs from our earlier number of datasets:  The total 
number of datasets reflects datasets plus data series. A data series may 
contain a large number of additional products or files of the same type. 
The previous Data.gov catalog counted the individual datasets and not 
just the series and therefore had a higher total number of datasets 
noted. The change in number does not reflect a change in the size of the 
catalog, but rather a different structure of data products in the new 
catalog.

Hope this helps to address any confusion.

--Jeanne

Jeanne, Thank you. I heard Doug Nebert announce this yesterday at the 
UCGIS 2013 Symposium:

http://ucgis2.org/event-item/preliminary-program

When I look for the 73,651 data sets, I find only 7,808 at: 
https://explore.data.gov/Other/Data-gov-Catalog/pyv4-fkgv

So where are the other 65,843?

My audit for reproducible results is at:

Hi all--

I invite you to visit Data.gov to see the new catalog for browsing U.S. 
open data: http://catalog.data.gov <http://catalog.data.gov/> We have 
combined raw and geospatial data from many sources across the U.S. and 
presented it through an open source tool, CKAN.

In connection with the U.S. Digital Strategy we have also created a new 
list of government APIs:
