EES: Generate CSV-W on-the-fly #24

Open ajtucker opened 3 years ago

The Department for Education have a new service called Explore Education Statistics (EES), a brilliant platform for publishing statistics that allows end users to browse and filter the data as well as allowing analysts to publish data, narrative and charts to explain the data.

The source code for EES is open and available on GitHub. The application looks to be a standard modern n-tier web application in a model-view-controller style, with an SQL database behind a server-side .Net based API backend and multiple JS (React) based front ends serving the various different users: admins, analysts, public.

One way to link all this data into the web of government statistics would be to provide on-the-fly views of the underlying data as CSV-W and specifically CSV-W that can be turned into Data Cubes and codelists (SKOS Concept Schemes) using CSV2RDF.
