5-star linked open data address registry
1) Smart cities need connected information infrastructure and technology to address social, economic, and environmental issues. Silos of data need to dissolve for this to happen. 2) The Flemish government is developing a 5-star Linked Open Data Address Registry containing over 4 million addresses and their coordinates, synchronized across 308 local governments. 3) The presentation encourages reusing common terms and standards to create interoperable solutions, and pitching ideas for using the Address Registry and other linked open data at an upcoming workshop.

Editor's Notes
- #3 Smart Cities need to be connected and networked with each other and with their citizens
- #4 Governmental silos will have to dissolve in order to achieve these goals.
- #5 The first 5-star Flemish Linked Address Register
- #6 We kick-off by explaining why and how we rewired authentic data sources to linked Base Registries Next we’ll explain how semantic interoperability is became the cornerstone of our e-gov strategy We’ll give you a jump-start on how to get grip on the address registry Finally we will inspire you with some applications and gather ideas or the future roadmap through an ideation session.
