[okfn-help] ckan.net data in Talis RDF

Fri Nov 6 15:47:25 GMT 2009

Here's a bit more information about CKAN in RDF format. You can also
view a package in RDF with a URL like this (for
32000-naples-florida-businesses-kml):
http://api.talis.com/stores/ckan/meta?about=http%3A%2F%2Fckan.net%2Fpackage%2Frdf%2F32000-naples-florida-businesses-kml

You can change the output format from RDF by appending something like:
&output=json

Full instructions are here:

> I've taken the package data from ckan.net, converted it to RDF and
> loaded it onto the Talis platform.
>
> So now you can do sparql queries:
> http://api.talis.com/stores/ckan/services/sparql
>
> I also provided a script to dump the RDF data straight. See below for
> an example RDF record.

> Do feed back if you get a chance to try it out!
