Abstract
This study aims to develop a Web service for reusing water data generated from institutional Web sites in Morocco. The results show the need for a national standard of water data exchange to improve the collaboration between stakeholders, citizens and central administration. This approach uses a prototype based on OGC Web services, Python modules, PHP tools, GIS free and open-source software to facilitate extraction, transformation and integration of “dams’ filling level.” The data was obtained from official Web site of Water Department and used to establish a prototype for dam system warming. By this experimentation, we can found that the problematic of water data exchange, still in current and may have a negative impact in collaboration between the users and producers of water data.
