Abstract

Linked Open Data (LOD) is a growing movement for organizations to make their existing data available in a machine-readable format. There are two equally important viewpoints to LOD: publishing and consuming. This article analyzes the requirements for both sub-processes and presents an example of publishing statistical data in RDF format and integrating the data into the LOD cloud via the PublicData.eu portal. In particular, it discusses the establishment of the Serbian CKAN metadata repository that serves for publishing open governmental data from Serbia, as well as a source catalogue for the PublicData.eu portal. Furthermore, by using an illustrative case study of the Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia, it elaborates the adaption of the LOD2 Stack for analysis and dissemination of official statistics information.
