Government — entry 077 of 90
Open Government, Spain
Datos.gob.es is Spain's national open-data catalogue, built on its own custom NTI-based platform rather than CKAN. It exposes a dedicated "API de Datos" (apidata) at `/apidata/catalog/`, returning catalogue, dataset, and distribution metadata as JSON or XML by content negotiation, with no key required. The live endpoint sends a wildcard `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` header, so it can be queried directly from browser-side apps.
