Why Choose PublishMyData?

We can help you publish your data as high quality Linked Data by looking after the technical and infrastructure details. But we go further than that: we want to make sure your data is actually used by the people who can benefit from it, ensuring you get the maximum value from your investment.

So, you've got some data...

So you've got some data that you'd like to be Linked Data? The principles are simple but the devil is in the detail.

With PublishMyData our aim is to make it as easy as possible for you to go from an Excel file or CSV export from your database to high quality Linked Data, following the established standards and emerging best practices.

Perhaps more importantly though, we want to make sure that your data actually gets used.

Our Approach

• Data publishing is an extension to your existing web presence and should be closely related to the rest of your online communication.
• The technical details 'just work', so we can focus on presenting the data in useful ways.
• Our aim is to maximise the value that can be gained from the data, by making sure it gets used.
• It's clear what data is available and how to access it. We ensure the data loads quickly and the site is easy to navigate.

What we actually do

• Make data accessible through your own customised portal.
• Publish data in your own web domain and present it in your corporate style.
• Advise on the whole data lifecycle.
• Carry out or advise on data modelling, choice or design of ontologies and identifiers to create high quality RDF.
• Provide dereferenceable Linked Data URIs.
• Provide a SPARQL endpoint and a configurable API.
• Provide data downloads in multiple formats - either the whole dataset or query results.
• Maintain and update data as it evolves.
