# Finding other Uruguay data

**Against the 2011 census (the latest by department in the catalogue's file), Uruguay has 3.73 cattle per person. In Durazno it is 16.7; in Montevideo, 0.0021. The dataset was found by meaning in the catalogue graph, fetched from the link its DCAT record gives, and joined on the department codes.**

## Charts

*Cattle per person, by department.* [Interactive](https://cow-tools.sophia-labs.com/notebooks/finding-other-data/index.html) · [Vega-Lite spec](https://cow-tools.sophia-labs.com/notebooks/finding-other-data/charts/cattle-per-person-map.vl.json)

## How we know

The notebook ran **6 cross-checks**, every one passed; the build refuses to publish a notebook whose numbers disagree with the source. A sample:

| check | got | expected | rule |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| semantic search finds the people-by-department census dataset, with a CSV, in its top ten | True | True | exactly |
| …and ranks it in the top five | True | True | exactly |
| 2011 census rows join all 19 departments | 19 | 19 | exactly |
| the by-sex census table is among the search hits, with a CSV | True | True | exactly |
| 2011 people per department: by-department table = by-sex table (total difference) | 0 | 0 | exactly |
| 2025 cattle total after the join | 12,265,269 | 12,265,269 | exactly |

Data: MGAP/SNIG DICOSE sworn declarations 2024 and 2025 (graph `uruguay-cows`), via SPARQL and MCP on the demo's own endpoint.
