Use Cases

• Monitor publication progress by analyzing the `Estado` and `Publicado en portal de datos` columns for different `Sector` categories.
• Identify responsible entities for data gaps by filtering `Entidades Responsables` where `Estado` indicates not published.
• Analyze prioritization criteria by examining the `Criterio de Priorización` column across different `Sector` groups.
• Track dataset updates and reviews using the `Fecha Revisión` and `Frecuencia de Actualización` (implied from description) columns.

Strengths

• Includes a direct link to the published data via the `Enlace Portal Dato Abierto` column for verification.
• Defined by national and international references, including the Inter-American Program of Data Against Corruption (PIDA).
• Multiple machine-readable formats (CSV, JSON, XML, RDF) are available for download.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for large-scale analysis.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
