Dissemination of results from 2010/2011 censuses The GEOSTAT project Dissemination of results from 2010/2011 censuses Representing Census data in a European population grid GISCO WP 2011 Luxembourg, 10th of March Session 5: Dissemination The title of the conference: “Creating a knowledge base for successful cities and regions...” presupposes that users play main role in this topic, because any knowledge base should be built for them, to satisfy their needs, their requests, to answer their questions. Dissemination thus plays two roles in creation a knowledge base – as an input when collecting requests, questions, demands, and as a tool when providing product (i.e. knowledge base) to users. When speaking about dissemination of a knowledge base we should concentrate on these questions: Who are our users, what are their needs, how can we collect them? What is user’s role during process of creating of a knowledge base? How can we disseminate a knowledge base? How to communicate metadata? Papers to be presented at this session should describe the experiences and best practices in the above mentioned areas.
