FornPunkt Open Data

This repository contains the source code for FornPunkt's open data portal as well as its dataset catalog.

FornPunkts data portal is built with Snowman, a static site generator for SPARQL endpoints. The source of the SPARQL endpoint is a Turtle file describing the FornPunkt data catalog and its contents.
