Statistical Linked Datasets
The following datasets are originally retrieved from statistical organizations and published using the Linked Data design principles. Each have a VoID file which you can be use to discover the datasets and datadumps. Their respective SPARQL Endpoints allow SPARQL 1.1 Queries. The URIs can be dereferenced in HTML, Turtle, RDF/XML and JSON formats.
