Simone Bocca – Data quality & Interoperability – The DataScientia approach (55:33)
28/06/2023
Data quality and interoperability are characteristics playing a crucial role for data generation and exploitation. The cost of “noisy” (or “dirty”) data, as well as a low level of data interoperability, is paid at different levels during the data lifecycle. It affects the capacity of data retrieval, the interpretation of the data, the data adaptation and integration, therefore the capacity of exploiting the data. In other words the value of data itself. To limit such costs, quality and interoperability principles have been defined, such as the 5-star Open Data schema, and the FAIR principles. Nevertheless, one more step can be done towards data resources which can be smartly exploited in different contexts. This seminar aims at summarizing the current approaches for data quality and interoperability, therefore describing the approach defined by the DataScientia foundation to do the additional step toward higher quality and interoperable data.

Alessandra Morellini – The Datascientia portal: access and navigation of Open data via CKAN (52:24)
01/02/2023
This presentation will discuss data management in our Datascientia portal. First, we will discuss our context and how the issue of open data management is currently being addressed. In the next section, we will introduce the problem of data publishing and data composition, focusing on stratified data. In the third part of the talk, we will discuss our implementation of the proposed solution and the related technologies, in particular CKAN, one of the widely used portals. Finally, we will talk about possible improvements and problems that we plan to address in the future.
