Sorting and Filtering
Sorting allows you to reorder datasets in different ways.
The list of datasets is dynamically altered by the criterea dictated by the filters
You may sort in the following ways:
| Name | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Relevance | first: score / second: last modified |
| Name Ascending | number followed by A-Z, based on title |
| Name Descending | Z-A followed by number, based on title |
| Rating Ascending | Datasets rated by best sorted on top |
| Rating Descending | Non-rated datasets sorted to top |
| Last modified | most recent modifications to metadata |
| Popular | Highest rating and views on top |
Filtering Datasets
Filtering datasets can be accomplished in various ways, using single or multiple filters. Filter options are shown ont he left-hand side of the of the dataset overview page in CKAN.
It is possible to filter results based on:
- Organizations
- Groups
- Tags
- File format
Filtering Datasets by Multiple Items
Filtering can be accomplished by the use of more than one filter.
Remove Filters
Filters may be removed from a search, one-by-one, by clicking on the cross behind the selected filter.
You may remove filters either on the left-hand side of the page, in the filtering area, or at the top of the page.
