The Core Datasets project is about collecting and maintaining (curating) important and commonly-used (“core”) datasets (e.g. GDP, ISO-codes) in high-quality, standardized and easy-to-use form - in particular, as up-to-date, well-structured Data Packages.
- Full details: http://data.okfn.org/roadmap/core-datasets - including slidedeck
- Live examples: You can find already packaged core datasets at http://data.okfn.org/data/ and in “raw” form on Github at https://github.com/datasets/
