Visualize your own data in the Google Public Data Explorer
16 de febrero de 2011
(Cross-posted on the
Google Code Blog
)
Over the past two years, we’ve made public data easier to find, explore and understand in several ways, providing
unemployment figures, population statistics
and
world development indicators
in search results, and introducing the
Public Data Explorer
tool. Together with our data provider partners, we’ve curated
27 datasets
including more than 300 data metrics. You can now use the Public Data Explorer to visualize everything from
labor productivity
(OECD) to
Internet speed
(Ookla) to
gender balance in parliaments
(UNECE) to
government debt levels
(IMF) to
population density by municipality
(Statistics Catalonia), with more data being added every week.
Today, we’re opening the Public Data Explorer to
your
data. We’re making a new data format, the
Dataset Publishing Language (DSPL)
, openly available, and providing an interface for
anyone
to
upload
their datasets. DSPL is an XML-based format designed from the ground up to support rich, interactive visualizations like those in the Public Data Explorer. The DSPL language and upload interface are available in Google Labs.
To upload a dataset, click on the “My Datasets” link on the left-hand side of the Public Data Explorer. Once imported, a dataset can be visualized, embedded in external websites, shared with others and published. If you’re an official provider, you can request that your datasets appear in the Public Data Explorer
directory
; please
contact us
to discuss this process.
With this new capability, we hope more datasets can come to life through Public Data Explorer visualisations and enable people to better understand the world around them and make more informed, data-driven decisions. Stay tuned for more datasets, visualization features and DSPL extensions in the future.
