Abstract

The essay bids a framing of the remarkable telematic services of the City of Torino. Core of the document is the description of the local Geographic Information System (GIS): the aim of the GIS on the Internet is to allow a shared use of data concerning land use and management, cartography, building rules, environment conditions. The system puts together information coming from different Departments of the Municipality. Access to the system is made possible through a series of subsystems, some already operative and some still under construction, all briefly described in the paper. Finally, an empiric example of the work procedures of the GIS structure is given with the description of the Digital Town Planning Scheme.
