Incubation Candidate: London DataStore

[Ian Davis]

Another candidate for conversion to linked data: <http://data.london.gov.uk/>

Lots of juicy data under Crown Copyright (and DB right too I am
presuming) which means freedom to reuse for any purpose (except
bringing the queen into disrepute :). Even converting the directory
could be interesting. Nice variety of data from
<http://data.london.gov.uk/datastore/package/abandoned-vehicles> to
<http://data.london.gov.uk/datastore/package/vacant-dwellings>.

A-Z list at <http://data.london.gov.uk/datasets>. Perhaps someone
could mirror them to CKAN if they are not already there.

Because the data is provided as static dumps, perhaps we could
convince them to host the RDF versions for download too as a first
step. A bigger step would be to convince them to publish URIs at
somewhere like <http://data.london.gov.uk/resources/>
