[CKAN](http://www.CKAN.org) is a popular, open-source data catalog. Even if an agency hasn't begun a data catalog, adopting CKAN can provide a robust and feature-rich solution with which to begin maintaining an internal or external catalog. In addition to providing an effective means of organizing the agency's data catalog, CKAN provides several opportunities for generating the needed data.json file. CKAN provides a convenient CSV export that can then be imported into the [Catalog Generator](http://project-open-data.github.com/catalog-generator/) for conversion into an appropriately formatted JSON file. Alternatively, CKAN provides a JSON API of the data catalog which can then be altered to provide an automatic update for the appropriately formatted JSON file.

It also provides support for Linked Data standards like [DCAT](http://docs.ckan.org/en/latest/linked-data-and-rdf.html), obviating the need to convert from JSON.
