Our plan is to go back to basics, to deliver the minimum viable product using DKAN.

But we need to do some work. where we are liberating metadata from Casweb and making it more usable for our users. We are going to go a step further and export the data which go with this new metadata, to create datasets to load into our shiny new dkan instance.

Luckily, the metadata in InFuse thailand rcs data is stored within the application in an easier to digest format than Casweb, so we are also in the process of exporting this together with the data into a set of lightweight data packages. Our aim will be to format the data and metadata from Casweb and InFuse to use the same structures, which means that our users won’t have to grapple with learning how data is structured when moving between censuses.

We’ll start by exporting data from InFuse 2011 using information from our download logs to determine which are our most popular datasets. For our initial data release we’ll be delivering 50 datasets through dkan, and will continue to release data in tranches of 50 until we’ve finished making all our data available as csv.
