🧵 2/6 Climate Knowledge Graph is an R&D project hosted at TIB @tibhannover – Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology and organised partnership with #semanticClimate. It's a 12 month development phase to start in May 2025. The Mission - should you choose to accept it :-) is to support the dissemination of the IPCC Reports. #frictionlessdata #frictionlesspublishing to borrow from @okfde | Image: OKFBrasil https://ok.org.br/noticia/participe-do-hackathon-de-frictionless-data-da-open-knowledge-foundation/ …

🌟 The #FrictionlessSummit documentation is now live. Review how the community meeting went last week to discuss #TheTechWeWant vision and the next steps for #FrictionlessData.

💫 Happening now: Ethan Welty shows how they use #FrictionlessData to describe and test glacier mass loss data with metadata. And the importance of being metadata-driven!

#DataPackage
#OpenData

To facilitate these releases (which include a few other deliverables in different formats) I created a #flask backend with a bunch of #click commands to handle ETL. This backend is based on a JSON file-based "registry" (https://github.com/healthyregions/oeps/blob/08ce288edf00f95962e1f5ab7af442288043dece/docs/registry.md) I put together, heavily inspired by #frictionlessdata . An enjoyable, if more ambitious than initially planned, endeavor.

🙏🏾 Thanks to the kind support of @pjmfnd, the @okfn team spent the last 10 months working to unlock the #FrictionlessData standards and software implementations for users unfamiliar with coding.

The result is an app that has the potential to democratise working with open data.

Good points about Language barriers (both in technical and cultural sense) and resource limitations being things the community behind the #FrictionlessData project is well aware of @okfn #opendata #TheTechWeWant

#FrictionlessData

👏 The team is ready! Thanks to the support of the Patrick J. McGovern Foundation and the joint work with the #FrictionlessData community, we are starting to take #OpenDataEditor to the next level.

🤗 Meet the people behind the app and see how you can get involved https://blog.okfn.org/2024/04/17/open-data-editor-meet-the-team-behind-the-app/

#TheTechWeWant

Today I wanted to share some data and thought "wait, I'm sure that's exactly what @simon 's @datasette is for" (I knew it existed but it was unclear to me what it was). Then I started browsing the docs and the plugins and... my mind is officially blown 🤯

Has anybody started using this for #OpenData portals already? Digging further, it seems to have some overlap with @okfn 's #CKAN and #FrictionlessData.

🎙️ By adopting #FrictionlessData standards, people working with #opendata improve the interoperability and reproducibility of their research findings. Don't miss @sape_by and Evgeny Karev talking all about it in the @code4thought podcast!

A concrete example of how to annotate an #SQLite database using the #FrictionlessData data package standard.

@okfn it would be great if there were more concrete worked examples in the docs!

Here is the recording of the last #Code4Dev workshop with the basics of implementing #FrictionlessData, our open-source toolkit that brings simplicity to the data experience. This training was offered by @okfn with the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB).

📺 Check out on YouTube– https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FO3n33103R4

We are thrilled to introduce the #OpenDataEditor (beta), a no-code, easy-to-use app to explore and publish all kinds of data: datasets, tables, charts, maps, stories, etc. Powered by #FrictionlessData. Please test it and send your feedback!

Implementing and caring for open standards is the core of our work at @okfn – e.g. #opendefinition, #frictionlessdata, #opendatacommons etc. Now, in a key moment for democracies worldwide, we are turning our attention to electoral processes 🧵

⚠️ Starting in 2 hours ⚠️ - "Learn to deploy the open-source tool #FrictionlessData" with OKFN's software developer Evgeny Karev. There's still time to come! The training will be held in English with translation to Spanish and Portuguese.
