Statistical Linked Datasets
The following datasets are originally retrieved from statistical organizations and published using the Linked Data design principles. Each have a VoID file which you can be use to discover the datasets and datadumps. Their respective SPARQL Endpoints allow SPARQL 1.1 Queries. The URIs can be dereferenced in HTML, Turtle, RDF/XML and JSON formats.
- OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development)
- BFS (Bundesamt für Statistik - Swiss Federal Statistics Office) - contains only the classifications at this time.
- FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations)

- FRB (Federal Reserve Board)
- BIS (Bank for International Settlements)
- ABS (Australian Bureau of Statistics)
Getting started: http://worldbank.270a.info/ and http://transparency.270a.info/ have their own documentation that's sufficient to dive into. The other datasets are explained at http://csarven.ca/linked-sdmx
