The Data-gov Wiki is a project of the Tetherless World Constellation at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, investigating open government datasets using semantic web technologies. The project is translating such datasets into RDF, getting them linked to the linked data cloud, and developing interesting applications and demos on linked government data. Most of the datasets come from the US government’s data.gov Web site, although some are from other countries and non-government sources.
The wiki currently hosts many demos of applications developed on linked data, such as
- Clean Air Status and Trends – Ozone
- Government Revenue Timelines
- Agency Budgets and New York Times News
- Wildland Fire and Government Budget
- Net Interstate Migration
and many other.
It includes also tutorials how to build applications and demos on linked data using the Google visualization library or Javascript API.
