Description:
The Madiera Portal provides access to an unprecedented quantity of social sciences quantitative datasets using an easy to use Yahoo-style interface. It works by harvesting statistical datasets published on the Semantic Web.
The Madiera Portal provides unified access to the resources (social sciences quantitative studies and variable groups) published by the data archives that take part to the Madiera project, a 5th Framework EU-project.
The resources are categorised using a set of multi and monolingual thesauri and classifications, currently:
GCL (UK Government Category List), CESSDA (Council of European Social Science Data Archives Classification) and ELSST (European Language Social Science Thesaurus).
