  • All eagle-i resources are identified by URIs.
  • All resource URIs are HTTP URLs, i.e. they are resolvable.
  • The HTTP protocol is used for content negotiation; the data is available in a variety of formats: RDF/XML, RDF/N3, HTML,...

The data in eagle-i search application indexes this data and leverages its semantics to offer a targeted search. Third party applications can also access the data to present different views of it, incorporate it in other websites, etc.

The Linked Open Data can be directly accessed in three ways:
1) Public SPARQL Endpoints
2) RDF downloads
3) Lists of URIs

Links to each of these mechanisms can be found at the data export portal: is contributed by Network member institutions. This data can be freely searched using our central search application, but it is also available three other ways:

*If a user or application knows the URI of a particular resource, they can simply request its data using the HTTP protocol; below is an example of an eagle-i resource:

  • a SPARQL endpoint (currently with authentication, public SPARQL endpoint anticipated May 2012)
  • a harvest API that lists all published resources in a repository (currently with authentication)

Existing public datasets, via the harvest API:
