Historical Open Data on World War II
The Dutch Knowledge Center for War Resources now has its own Open Data
portal. Over the course of the last decades hundreds of organisations
in Europe collected historical information on World War II. The
current portal presents 59 datasets, resulting from the joint archive
efforts of more than 100 organisations in the Netherlands. The Open
Data registry consists of a historical thesaurus, a list of music that
was forbidden during World War II, as well as Open Data on current war
monuments. In this way, the Open Data portal increases the digital
accessibility of war archives and teaches Dutch citizens about their
country's history. You can visit the Open Data portal through the
