This repository contains part of the data of the Indigenous Data Network (IDN)'s Knowledge Graph which is delivered online via the Prez system as a series of catalogues and reference datasets, such as spatial data collections and vocabularies.
The IDN Prez system is online at:
The IDN is producing multiple systems and datasets:
-
Demonstration Catalogue of Australian datasets
-
with varying levels of indigenous relevance to demonstrate several aspects of indigenous data governance, sovereignty and how to even rate the "indigenous-ness" of data in the first place.
-
-
-
containing information about Agents - People and Organisations - that have some relation to indigenous data
-
-
University of Melbourne’s Indigenous Data Catalogue
-
this is currently (May, 2023) empty but will fill shortly
-
-
-
multiple vocabularies, all assembled and some created, by the IDN that support modelling indigenous data
-
-
Indigenous spatial reference data
-
indigenous language, land use, treaty and other areas
-
all from other sources, attributed in the data
-
Additionally, the IDN will support a catalogue of ANU's indigenous data underdevelopment by ANU’s First National Portfolio that’s not online yet.
This repository contains only some of those system’s data, see next.
This repository contains:
-
Demonstration Catalogue items' metadata
-
metadata entries for the catalogued resources in
data/democat/
-
-
the vocabularies within the IDN’s Register of vocabularies
-
within
data/vocabularies/
-
-
background ontologies used to provide labelling for Prez' data
-
within
data/_background/
-
-
IDN Prez system metadata
-
within
data/system/ -
defines things like the multiple IDN catalogues, system labels etc.
-
Also:
-
data/ubpublished/contains data either previously published and removed but not deleted as it may be used again
Stored elsewhere are:
-
Agents Database content
-
some test data is stored here in but the Agents DB is building/storing its own data within it
-
see the AgentsDB data repository
-
-
Indigenous spatial reference data
-
some of these datasets are large so their raw content isn’t directly available
-
see the repo https://github.com/idn-au/spatial-data for a listing of the datasets and instructions on how they are produced
-
The metadata of items in the Demonstration Catalogue and all other catalogues based on IDN work - the UoM IDCat and the ANU’s FNP’s future catalogue - use the IDN Catalogue Profile which is a data cataloguing standard based on DCAT.
Agents data in the Agents Database are formulated according to the Agents Governance Profile.
