Data Integration - Data Integration Processes in Hamburg, Munich, and Leipzig

Content

Data Integration is the process of extracting data out of its silos and integrating it into geo data infrastructures/Urban Data Platforms, with the goal of making it available via standardized interfaces.
This process is currently established in all CUT cities and will be presented in this webinar.

Handlungsfeld der Datengovernance: Datenintegration

Das Dokument betrachtet innerhalb der Handlungsfelder der Datengovernance (DG) für Städte und Kommunen das Handlungsfeld Datenintegration (DI). Darunter wird ein Prozess verstanden, der Daten aus - ggfs. unterschiedlichen - Datenquellen in eine andere Dateninfrastruktur (z.B. in die Geodateninfrastruktur oder urbane Datenplattform einer Kommune) einbindet.

The Key Learnings

Providing Data for the External Application

Data Integration is an established process at the lower interface to the Urban Data Platform (UDP). It involved retrieving standardized data that is ideal für open standards from the silos of the infrastructures(UDP and making it available for external use.

Roles in a Data Integration Process

A Data Integration Process typically involves a number of different roles. The dta owner, who has technical responsibility and wished to publish it. Geospatial experts are responsible for integrating data into the data platform or GDI abd creating APIs. Additionally, there is the option of including the data consumer, who requires data from third parties.

Continuous Questioning and Consideration

Throughout this process, it is essential to continually evaluate and address key considerations related to the intended use, data requirements, technical adaptions, interoperability, and other pertinent factors.
