🪩 Introducing matadisco.org! — a way to discover open datasets via #atproto that doesn't depend on any single institution staying online. 🕺🏼 We have more public data than ever (satellite imagery, climate models, genomic sequences), but finding it is still painfully hard. https://matadisco.org
Matadisco: Can We Bootstrap Public Data Discovery with ATProto?
Let's talk about a system for universal data discovery, that doesn't depend on any single institution staying funded or online.

Matadisco — Decentralized Data Discovery
An open, decentralized network for data discovery built on ATProto. Publish metadata, build portals, find data.

openAFRICA
Africa's Largest Volunteer Driven Open Data Platform. openAFRICA aims to be largest independent repository of open data on the African continent.

Podium — open data search
Podium: a search engine for open data published on the AT Protocol — Matadisco datasets, Astrosky transient events, and more.

matadisco.orgThis could be very relevant for funding the atproto ecosystem, especially once private data is supported ifp.org/unlocking-a-... "The challenge is not data scarcity, but rather barriers to ... utilizing existing high-quality data resources." also see associated funding call ifp.org/rfp-launch/

ifp.org#atproto devs, I know data is public and accessible But we need more tools to help people download their data in *familiar and user-friendly* formats Data ownership is also about enabling people to use and move their data in whatever way they desire, even if they wish to take it outside the protocol

I'd argue that having an export tool to fetch the data from the PDSes into familiar data files would be very much appreciated by the general public, both webcomic authors and readers (especially converting the block content into something clean to import anywhere they might desire)
Emerging from being "down in the technical weeds" of #atproto is a little mashup of @semble.so & WayFinder (wayfinders.network) Semble team released "open collections" this week - here we explore the "private & permissioned data" collection, created by @bmann.ca & now with 3 other contributors
standard.site -style lexicon for hosting datasets on atproto? anyone have $500?
I've been thinking about the beauty of open data and how the AT Protocol and wider Atmosphere ecosystem has been recapturing that open data environment that once defined the web. It really does feel special. vale.rocks/posts/atproto-ethos #atproto #ATProtocol
