Best Practices

Example Cubes

For published examples see https://lindas.admin.ch/datasets/ with the tag "Cube".

Naming Conventions

• For Target Property (in CSV Mapper)
  • All minor case.
  • Use english terms if possible.

Data with municipalities, cantons and countries

• use three different shared dimensions (Municipalities, Cantons and Countries) on the concept that contains the values for municipalities, cantons and countries (by using the + sign)
• use schema:alternateName as Identifier property if your data uses abbreviations like ("BE", "ZH", "CH")
• choose as Hierarchy Switzerland - Canton - Municipality and leave all the other fields
• retransform the cube
