Metadata accessibility points

Using the LOD Observer module (from the lodqa scripts) we retrieved a number of datasets that can be used during the quality assessment. For this we retrieved the distributions (dcat:Distribution) defined in the dataset metadata (dcat:Dataset), in order to identify the media types and the corresponding URLs that make the dataset ready for consumption. During the acquisition process, we were interested in finding a data dump (containing all triples of the dataset), a SPARQL endpoint description, and a voID description for each dataset. Ideally, all datasets meet all three conditions. This image shows the datasets retrieved and their accessibility points. Click on the image to enlarge.
