Che problemi ci sono rispetto all'"origine dei dati"?
Io ad esempio ho degli shape file con una decina di migliaia di toponimi
italiani, sull'origine è meglio sorvolare.
Se fossero corretti e aggiornati "assurgerebbero" a nuova vita?

> Web2ForDev*[1]* <#111ece93d4df5818__ftn1> 2007 is the first conference
> devoted to exploring the ways in which international development
> stakeholders can take advantage of the technical and organizational
> opportunities provided by Web 2.0 methods, approaches and applications.
> The conference will promote the adoption and dissemination of appropriate,
> low-cost and replicable Internet-based applications by actors in
> agriculture, rural development, and natural resource management. It aims
> to
> inspire participants to use and develop their own information management
> and
> communication systems based on these applications.
> The conference targets agriculture, rural development, and natural
> resource
> management stakeholders, particularly those from developing countries,
> experienced with or interested in the potential of Web 2.0, including
> technology intermediaries, policy makers, information and communication
> specialists, software developers, application and system providers and
> information service providers. Participants are expected to have
> experience
> and understanding of information and communication technologies (ICTs) and
> to be in a position to understand, adopt and disseminate the showcased
> applications and approaches.
> In particular we encourage proposals that are:
>
>    - *Thematic case studies*: 15/20-minute presentations on examples of
>    projects and processes that are adopting Web 2.0 tools and
>    methodologies, and that evaluate their impacts, benefits and
> challenges;
>    - *Thematic showcases*: 15/20-minute presentations on Web 2.0 tools
>    and methodologies developed for knowledge exchange, collaboration,
> learning
>    and networking;
>    - *Panel discussions*: 30-minute exchanges that provide an overview of
>    one or more crosscutting issue (see the list below); these will be
> debated
>    by a group of panellists and facilitated by a chairperson.
>
> The sessions should offer practical examples of Web 2.0 concepts and
> applications in knowledge exchange, collaboration, learning and networking
> in the sectors of agriculture, rural development, and natural resource
> management.
> Experiences and case studies from sectors other than development (e.g.
> education, private sector) that show potential for adoption can be
> presented. The focus is on innovation in common practices, opportunities,
> needs, and issues that participants may address more effectively with the
> adoption of Web 2.0 tools, methodologies and approaches.
>
> *Theme, topics and cross-cutting issues*
>
> The *theme* of the Conference is "Participatory Web for Development:
> Networking, collaborating and exchanging knowledge in agriculture, rural
> development and natural resources management".

>    - Shared virtual spaces, remote collaboration, and knowledge sharing
>    - Appropriate technologies for on-line publishing
>    - On-line information retrieval and access
