Open infrastructures for resilient municipalities

Severe events such as the floods in the summer in NRW show that structures that are supposedly taken for granted are fragile, especially in times of crisis.

Matthew Fullerton, CTO, will give a short presentation on “Public air quality data in the context of geodata portals, open data portals and open urban platforms”.

Im Workshop “Handlungsfähige Kommune” wird Martin Montag, Head of Sales Public Sector bei Hawa Dawa, unter der Moderation von Alexander Handschuh, Sprecher des DStGBs, an einer Podiumsdiskussion zum Thema “Chancen der Digitalisierung” teilnehmen.
