Urban Data Management Symposia
Introduction
Since the first edition in 1971, UDMS symposia have been the forum where the development of information systems for local authorities has been presented and discussed. The evolution of design and implementation approaches and of technological solutions is collected in the UDMS proceedings making them both academically interesting and useful for the work of researchers and professionals.
As in UDMS tradition the papers, presented by specialists coming from many different countries, deal with advanced and applied research but also with implementation projects and working experiences.
