CKAN Portals on Datashades dot info with Karina
Datashades.info was built as an experiment by Link Digital, and with something of a hopeful outcome. We wanted it to demonstrate value for those who might like to use CKAN and add the URL of their portal so it can be indexed over time.
The person who has delivered the clicks on this hope of long-term value is Karina, who manually triggers the indexing on each portal monthly. Why manually? Well, you can take a look and hear about the story behind datashades.info right here.
The future for datashades.info is pretty interesting. It can easily be built up as a research tool, a community hub, or a marketplace of knowledge about CKAN. The value of adding your own portal URL, and of selecting CKAN as your tool for publishing public data, will only increase as the practices of running, publishing and using data portals harmonise around best practices.
If datashades.info can help bring people and practices together, through sharing increasingly valuable knowledge, then that would be a great outcome for the CKAN and Open Data community.
Recorded for #CKANDemoDays 2024 - record your own CKAN Demo Days videos and contact folks via ckan.org to include them on the international playlist.
