Universitat Pompeu Fabra

Universitat Pompeu Fabra (UPF) is a public research university in Barcelona, Spain, ranked #266 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. Its public developer footprint centers on the "UPF en Xifres 2.0" linked open data portal (data.upf.edu), which exposes institutional datasets via a CKAN action API and a Virtuoso SPARQL endpoint, and on the UPF Digital Repository (e-Repositori), built on DSpace 7.6 with a public REST API and an OAI-PMH harvesting endpoint. Identity is handled through an adAS / Shibboleth SAML single sign-on service. Most other software is published by research groups (e.g. the Music Technology Group) on GitHub rather than as institutional APIs.
