Share-PSI Berlin Workshop: Maximising interoperability — core vocabularies, location-aware data and more

Call for Participation

The fifth and final workshop in the Share-PSI series will address the
topic of maximising interoperability: core vocabularies,
location-aware data and more. The workshop is explicitly interested in
ideas, concepts and solutions that directly or indirectly address the
interoperability of open data and PSI. As with all Share-PSI
workshops, the aim is to identify best practices in these areas with a
focus on Public Sector Information, although cultural heritage,
commercial and scientific data are also relevant.

The successful usage of open data depends on its availability and, in
many cases, on the degree of its interoperability. The following
crucial factors have to be met:

staff at public authorities with different technical experience have
to be able to increase the discoverability and interoperability of
their datasets;
public authorities should make it easy to combine datasets from
different sources, different member states or different domains;
public authorities should be aware of the tools in most common use to
import, process and visualise data;
public authorities should refer to locations in a consistent manner to
enable the combination of multiple datasets that refer to the same
place.
Participants can expect to engage and share expertise with others
interested improving especially, but not only, the technical aspects
of PSI interoperability.
