NT Open Data Search (data.nt.gov.au Datasets)

ntopendata/search-datasets

Searches the Northern Territory (Australia) Government open data portal for datasets matching your search terms and returns the total match count plus, for each dataset on the requested page, its title, description, publisher, declared licence, resources and download links. Each dataset carries its own licence, which is passed through unchanged; some are marked not specified. Catalogue records only, not the data files. NT Government portal data, served by Eden Engine; not an official Northern Territory Government product.
