About LINDAS

LINDAS

The Federal Archives are conducting a Linked Data project designed to develop the linked data service LINDAS. By the end of 2020 LINDAS will provide a tool for data conversion and data integration, a triplestore (data storage) and a visualization tool. The visualization tool is being developed by the Federal Office for the Environment. Further information can be found on the eGovernment Switzerland website.
