Formats
TSV
A tab-separated file for each type in Freebase, suitable for loading into spreadsheets or database systems. Each line represents an instance of a Freebase type and columns represent the available properties for the type. You may download the full set, or browse Freebase domains and types to find specific data sets.
- The full download is approximately 1300 Mbytes compressed with Bzip2.
- The browseable set contains approximately 7500 TSV files in 100 domains.
Link Export
A full dump of Freebase assertions (quad dump) as tab separated utf8 text. This is a complete "low level" dump of data which is suitable for post processing into RDF or XML datasets. The format of the link export is a series of lines, one assertion per line. The lines are tab separated quadruples, <source>, <property>, <destination>, <value> An assertion is a statement of fact about the <source> object. In any assertion, either the <destination> or <value> or both <destination> and <value> are present.
- A sample of this output is available.
- The Link Export is approximately 4000 Mbytes compressed with Bzip2.
Simple Topic Dump
A tab-separated file containing basic identifying data about every topic in Freebase. The columns are: GUID, English display name, Freebase /en keys (comma-separated), numeric English Wikipedia keys (comma-separated), Freebase types (comma-separated), and a short text description from Wikipedia (when available). Tabs and newlines are backslash-escaped, and null fields are represented by "\N".
- The Simple Topic Dump is approximately 1000 Mbytes compressed with Bzip2.
