Abstract

Open data availability, participation and knowledge sharing are becoming increasingly important in planning processes aimed at protecting and enhancing the territory. This paper presents an application of Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) for the creation of an open database for the enhancement of Basilicata region territory. The work was carried out during the Smart Basilicata training project and led to the definition of a map of the services of the regional territory, starting from open source tools and data available online and processed through geographic information systems.
