Trentino government linked open geo-data: a case study

Our work is settled in the context of the public administration domain, where data can come from different entities, can be produced, stored and delivered in different formats and can have different levels of quality. Hence, such a heterogeneity has to be addressed, while performing various data integration tasks. We report our experimental work on publishing some government linked open geo-metadata and geo-data of the Italian Trentino region. Specifically, we illustrate how 161 core geographic datasets were released by leveraging on the geo-catalogue application within the existing geo-portal. We discuss the lessons we learned from deploying and using the application as well as from the released datasets.
