The Italian Civil Protection Alerting System is managed by a network of Functional Centers (CF) and Competence Centers (CC) that collect and process meteorological, hydrological, seismic, and volcanic data. The geoSDI program coordinates Italy's spatial data infrastructure for civil protection according to INSPIRE directives. It allows civil and military institutions to store, manage, and share geographic information as OGC web services. GeoSDI has been used to provide geospatial support during emergencies like the 2009 L'Aquila earthquake and the 2009 G8 summit.
1. The Italian Civil Protec1on Aler1ng
System
The Italian Civil Protection has a federal nature
The Italian Civil Protection Alerting System is
guaranteed by the
Network of Functional Centers (CF) and
Competence Centers (CC)
CF: operative units in all the Regions, collecting and using all operationally
available data of meteorological, hydrological, hydraulic, volcanic, seismic
matters
CC: research institutions providing services, information, data processing,
technical and scientific advice to support decision making of the Civil
Protection Department
2. Tradi1onal way to manage data
Storage / Database
You can work with data only by (local/remote)
DIRECT ACCESS TO FILE
Hundreds of mimetypes (DXF, TIFF, ECW, JPG, PNG, DEM, CSV, SHP, KML …)
3. The new Standard
The Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc.® (OGC)
is a non-profit, international, voluntary consensus
standards organization that
is leading the development of standards for
geospatial and location based services.
WMS OGC Open Web Services allow web clients to
(Web Map Service)
WCS Query and Receive geographic
(Web Coverage Service)
WFS information
(Web Feature Service)
… in the form of image, vector, or coverage data.
4. Open Web Services
With OGC web services you can
WMS
WCS
WFS Query and Receive geographic
CSW informa1on
VIA INTERNET
using standards
Desktop Clients / Web Clients
6. The geoSDI Programme
geoSDI is a Programme coordinated by the Italian Civil Protection Department
• For implemeting the Civil Protection
National Spatial Data Infrastructure
• According to the provisions of the INSPIRE
Directive
• Using open source software applications.
http://www.geosdi.org
It is developed by the Institute for the Methodologies
of Environmental Analysis (IMAA) of the Italian
National Research Council (CNR) with the
collaboration of most of the national civil and military
institutions concerned.
7. The geoSDI Project
geoSDI is also the name of a complete solution for:
• Pre-processing data for creating geoSpatial DataStores
• Managing and providing OGC Web Services (Server Side Components)
• Use OGC Web Services (Client Side Components)

10. Recent geoSDI cases:
the Abruzzo Earthquake
C.P.Dept Partners produce data
rela1ve to the earthquake
And share them as
