DCAT-AP API endpoints for data.public.lu
This API exposes the metadata catalog of data.public.lu, Luxembourg's open data portal, in DCAT and DCAT-AP formats, serialised as RDF. DCAT is a W3C vocabulary for data catalog interoperability, extended by DCAT-AP for European data portals. Built on the open-source udata platform, the API allows federation with other portals, notably enabling data.europa.eu to harvest all datasets published on data.public.lu. Users can retrieve the full catalog (e.g. via catalog.rdf) or metadata for a specific publishing organization by ID. This standardised interface underpins interoperability across European open data infrastructure and supports automated harvesting and reuse of Luxembourg's public datasets.Data.public.lu provides all its metadata in the DCAT and DCAT-AP formats, i.e. all data about the data stored or referenced on data.public.lu. DCAT (Data Catalog Vocabulary) is a specification designed to facilitate interoperability between data catalogs published on the Web. This specification has been extended via the DCAT-AP (DCAT Application Profile for data portals in Europe) standard, specifically for data portals in Europe. The serialisation of those vocabularies is mainly done in RDF (Resource Description Framework). The implementation of data.public.lu is based on the one of the open source udata platform. This API enables the federation of multiple Data portals together, for example, all the datasets published on data.public.lu are also published on data.europa.eu. The DCAT API from data.public.lu is used by the european data portal to federate its metadata. The DCAT standard is thus very important to guarantee the interoperability between all data portals in Europe. Usage Full catalog You can find here a few examples using the curl command line tool: To get all the metadata from the whole catalog hosted on data.public.lu `` curl https://data.public.lu/catalog.rdf ` Metadata for an organization To get the metadata of a specific organization, you need first to find its ID. The ID of an organization is the last part of its URL. For the organization "Open data Lëtzebuerg" its URL is https://data.public.lu/fr/organizations/open-data-letzebuerg/ and its ID is open-data-letzebuerg. To get all the metadata for a given organization, we need to call the following URL, where {id} has been replaced by the correct ID: https://data.public.lu/api/1/organizations/{id}/catalog.rdf Example: `` curl.

Data access
This API doesn't publish a machine-readable schema (such as an OpenAPI spec) that we can read automatically, so there's no field list to show here. See the documentation for its available endpoints and response formats.
