“…This information, including multimedia and GPS data, were stored into the Google App Engine platform and afterwards was transferred into Google Fusion Tables for mapping and sharing with the general public. Both tools were tested in real scenarios in the Italian region of Puglia and the results seem to be encouraging: Open Data Kit has provided a good platform for the collection of data and it is reliable for georeferencing the fields, while Google Fusion Tables allowed us to show the data and share them in an easy way [35].…”

Puglia region is particularly rich in agro-biodiversity, representing an example of how local vegetables varieties can still strongly interact with modern horticulture. Unfortunately, the genetic diversity of vegetable crops in this region has been eroded, due to several factors such as abandonment of rural areas, ageing of the farming population, and failure to pass information down the generations. This article summarizes the objectives, methodological approach and results of the project "Biodiversity of the Puglia's vegetable crops (BiodiverSO)", an integrated project funded by Puglia Region Administration under the 2007-2013 and 2014-2020 Rural Development Program (RDP). Results were reported for each of the eight activities of the project. Moreover, the Polignano carrot (a local variety of Daucus carota L.) was described as a case study, since several tasks have been performed within all eight project activities with the aim of verifying the effectiveness of these actions in terms of safeguarding for this genetic resource strongly linked with local traditions. BiodiverSO is an example of protection and recovery of vegetables at risk of genetic erosion that could help to identify and valorize much of the Puglia's plant germplasm.

To evaluate and improve the delivery of health care services and programs; to collect and share information on agro-biodiversity; to fill the gaps in the data of artisanal or industrial fisheries, the use of computer tools of data collection is a major asset. It is now obvious that most of these tools are difficult to use in developing countries. And this is because of the complexity of use, either because they are commercial solutions or simply because these tools require a stable internet connection. This study is the result of thorough research on Open Data Kit (ODK), a suite of tools fully compatible with the context of developing countries and fully open source software. This article traces the research work done for the design, implementation, and improvement of ODK. A description of the different ODK extensions that can be found in the literature is given in addition to the reasons that explain the success of ODK in developing countries. To highlight the utility of ODK, an analysis of the areas of use of ODK has been made. This analysis concludes that ODK is mainly used to improve the intervention effectiveness of health system agents in developing countries.

In this study, the spatial-temporal transfer of research topics in the field of scientometrics was analysed through citation analysis and information visualization tools such as CiteSpace and Google Fusion Tables software. We collected 12,839 articles, including 214,748 references, about citation analysis in Science Citation Index-Expanded (SCI-E) and Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) databases for the period of 1971 to July 2016 as the data source. We obtained the following findings: The transfer of central research topics in the field of scientometrics is accelerating. There have been three milestones: the middle of the 1990s, 2005, and 2010. The number of central research topics has also changed from one between 1971 and 1993 to two after 1994 and three after 2008. At the same time, the geographical centres of scientometrics research showed a general shift from the US and Britain to Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, and China. At present, the countries that are centres of research include the Netherlands, US, Belgium, China, Spain, and Italy. There is a close positive correlation between the transfer of the central research topic and the transformation of the country to a centre of research. The countries acting as centres of research enjoy not only a high output of literature, but also a great academic influence. Both the theoretical and practical implications of the results are discussed.
