{{tag|Data}} from DBpedia can be used in many ways, and is ideally suited to mobile applications and mobile devices, such as the modern generation [[:Category:GPS|GPS]]-equipped {{tag|smartphone}}s.  One example is the [[:Category:Android|Android]] mobile app ''University Finder''; this app extracts data from the [[Italian Wikipedia]], and presents it ordered by [[user]]-selectable groups such as '[[:Category:City|city]]' and '[[:Category:Region|region]]', and compares a plethora of information on [[:Category:Universities|universities]] in [[:Category:Italy|Italy]], complete with [[:Category:Google Maps|Google Maps]] push-pin data.

DBpedia fundamentally works on a 'dataset', and this can probably best be visualised as the structured data found in the many types of 'infoboxes' as found on the many different Wikipedias.  DBpedia states that the dataset from the [[English Wikipedia]] consists of "3.77 million 'things' with 400 million 'facts'".  The data is also available as 'localised' versions in over 110 [[:Category:Wiki Language|languages]], which together describe 20.8 million things.
