Government — entry 043 of 90
Open Government, Belgium
Data.gov.be is Belgium's federal open-data portal, built on a custom Drupal-based platform rather than CKAN. Rather than a search REST API, it publishes its full catalogue as a DCAT-AP metadata export (RDF/XML and N-Triples) and exposes it live through a Triple Pattern Fragments / Linked Data Fragments server at `ldf.belgif.be/datagovbe`, which answers unauthenticated with a wildcard CORS header. The main site itself also sits behind bot-detection middleware that can block naive scripted fetches, but the LDF endpoint and the documented DCAT export are both reachable directly.
