Technology Integration for the Services Offered by the Public Administrations

The paper presents two examples of network and technology integrations useful for the Public Administrations for deploying and offering services to the citizens. In the first example, the access to the neutral network is the service provided and the solutions conceived for the Public Administrations. In order to offer WiFi connectivity to their citizens are presented. In the second example, the service provided is the environmental monitoring through data collection and processing centralized over a private network, and the neutral network provides accessibility and usability of the collected data. The integration among the sensor networks and the communication networks for central data elaboration, as well as the elaboration process up to the publication of the data over the neutral network is presented. The applicability of Open and Neutral Access Network is thus different in the two cases, but in both cases the possibilities granted by these technologies enable the Public Administrations and the private entities to leverage on shared resources and development costs for the introduction of new services to the citizens.
