* Fächergruppen, Lehr- und Forschungsbereiche, Fachgebiete (subject groups, teaching and research fields, subject areas)
This repository contains a machine-readable representation of the
Destatis /Systematik der Fächergruppen, Lehr- und Forschungsbereiche
und Fachgebiete/ (Classification system of teaching and research
fields and subject areas), 2025 version.
To the best of our knowledge, the original version is published by
Destatis only as a PDF, and the same applies to the German and English
tables published by the DFG as a reference for their annual
survey. Conversion here was partially scripted and partially manual
(copy-pasting and splitting or combining lines). All code is included
and re-runnable, but, due to the manual nature of the process, it does
not form a neat pipeline. The English labels are included, where
available, as provided by the DFG. No additional translation was
performed.
** Contents
- =all_records.toml= is a simple and generic representation with
numerical Destatis identifiers as keys; levels are nested within
each other
- =all_records.ttl= is a representation based on the Datalad concepts'
[[https://concepts.datalad.org/s/things/v2/][things v2]] schema (and, as such, loosely based on SKOS)
- =all_records.jsonl= is a JSON Lines version of the above, with
simple keys (no -LD context)
- =subject-classification-stabu.org= is the content of the English
version of the DFG table, manually sorted and with org-mode headers
- =*.txt= files are more all less directly parsed from the PDFs

Another serialization of the /Systematik der Fächergruppen, Lehr- und
Forschungsbereiche und Fachgebiete/ to SKOS/turtle exists at
[[https://github.com/rue-a/come2data-skohub/][github:github.com/rue-a/come2data-skohub]]. The latest version (at the
moment of this writing) appears to be based on the 2023
classification.

the moment of this writing) is based on 2024 classification.
