Open data and copyrights for a thesis
The citations should come directly from the source, and the details will depend on how they've licensed it.  There's a lot more to open-source licensing, but when you're just doing the citing proper attribution is the main thing you need to concern yourself with.

Here's one example from the St. Louis Fed database, on their data series for GDP:

In my experience most data series have a citation right on the page now days.  If it doesn't, try looking in the site's FAQ, or elsewhere on their site for how they wish to be cited.
