Eurostat’s metadata server (RAMON - ‘Reference And Management Of Nomenclatures’) will be discontinued by the end of the year and its content will migrate to three other platforms as part of our efforts to modernise the way we disseminate our statistical classifications and correspondence tables.
Where can you find the data currently available in RAMON?
The content of RAMON (statistical classifications, correspondence tables, catalogues of metadata (statistical methodologies or standards), Standard cross-domain Code Lists (SCL) used in Eurostat’s reference database) can now be found in three separate locations:
- EU Vocabularies provides Eurostat’s most widely used statistical classifications and their associated correspondence tables as Linked Open Data (LOD);
- Euro SDMX Registry offers you all statistical classifications used by Eurostat and all the Standard cross-domain Code Lists (SCL) used in Eurostat’s reference database;
- In CIRCABC, you can find all statistical classifications used by Eurostat as well as their associated correspondence tables.
You can now search and browse the content – or download the Classifications and their Correspondence Tables in different formats for reuse (SKOS/RDF, SDMX/XML). The statistical classifications are described with rich metadata, ensuring that you as a user are well-informed about the context. The proprietary formats (MDB, XLS, PDF, Word) remain available in CIRCABC.
