Abstract

Statistical data is present everywhere--from governmental bodies to economics, from life-science to industry. With the rise of the Web of Data, the need for sharing, accessing, and using this data has entered a new stage. In order to enable proprietary, closed-world formats, to enter the Web of Data, we propose a framework for modelling and publishing statistical data. To illustrate the usefulness of our approach we demonstrate its application in real-world statistical datasets.
