History of Open Data in South Tyrol
Municipality of Merano
The Municipality of Merano was the first municipality in Italy to make its cartographic data (including orthophotos and other interesting data) freely available, thus allowing it to be used for OpenStreetMap. The corresponding authorization was decided following the South Tyrol Free Software Conference 2007. On November 18, 2007, User:Mikel organized the first Mapping Party in Italy on this occasion.
OpenGisData
Open GIS Data was the name of the Open Data initiative of the Province of Bolzano. The Province declared itself ready to make a large part of its GIS data usable for OSM under an open license (CC0). In the course of this, a dedicated portal (opengisdata.eu) was also created.
Official description of this initiative: "Open GIS Data" is a project of Department for information Technologies of the Autonomous Province of Bolzano and it's founded by European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). The main objective of the project is to publish all GIS data of the Province of Bolzano as Open Data. Furthermore the project aims to optimize the sincronization between the databases available (Consorzio dei Comuni, Wege) and create the instruments to allow the citizen to give feedback about the published data."[2]
As part of this project, the province's house numbers were imported into OpenStreetMap in 2014 (OpenGisData HouseNumber Import2).
