The SDMX standard defines a common set of statistical concepts and related code lists intended for reuse across many datasets.
As part of the Interoperability Basis project, work was undertaken to bridge gaps and semantically enrich the SDMX glossary and code-lists XML-schemes published in the global registry. The following RDF/OWL namespaces were defined:
| Prefix | Namespace | Description |
|---|---|---|
| sip-sdmx-concept | http://purl.semanticip.org/linked-data/sdmx/concept/ | Namespace for SDMX concepts. Glossary based on version 2.0 of the SDMX Glossary as published in the official global registry, provided as SKOS concepts. |
| sip-sdmx-code | http://purl.semanticip.org/linked-data/sdmx/code/ | Namespace for SDMX Code Lists. SKOS ConceptSchemes and Concepts for the code lists contained in the SDMX global registry. |
| sip-sdmx-agency | http://purl.semanticip.org/linked-data/sdmx/agency/ | Namespace for agencies that publish or aggregate statistical data. |
These namespaces are offered as a convenient public vocabulary and are not part of the RDF Data Cube specification.
