A guided tour of csv2rdf4lod's Turtle dump file

csv2rdf4lod-automation is licensed under the [Apache License, Version 2.0](https://github.com/timrdf/csv2rdf4lod-automation/wiki/License)

The structure and ordering of the RDF output has been carefully designed to maximize readability for those who are interested in reading the output directly. Of course, navigation tools are useful, but they aren't what they need to be yet. Until then, we make it as easy on your eyes as possible if you're developing this stuff.

"But where's the RDF/XML?"

The converter only outputs Turtle. Any standard tool (Jena, rapper) can be used on your system to decimate the readability of Turtle. Li Ding provides a web service lodcx that will grab a Turtle file on the web and return RDF/XML.
