Answer

The datadump.sql file is a PostgreSQL dump, and it needs to be restored using psql.

Please follow the steps below:

Install PostgreSQL (if not already installed):
https://www.postgresql.org/download/
Make sure psql and createdb are available in your terminal after installation.
Decrypt the dump file:

Use your GPG private key to decrypt the file before proceeding.
Create a database:
```
createdb tempodata
```
Load the dump into the database:
```
psql tempodata < datadump.sql
```
Connect to the database and explore:
```
psql tempodata
```
