THE PROJECT

Qualigeo Project was founded in 2006 by the commitment of QUALIVITA FOUNDATION; Qualigeo is the first systematized database dedicated to FOOD, WINE & SPIRITS products with Geographical Indication (GI) recognized by the European Union and national and international systems for the protection of GIs. Thanks to the constant support of the MINISTRY OF AGRICULTURE AND FORESTRY, Qualigeo was structured in time as an open project, able to follow the GIs System’s growth dynamics by organizing the information assets in a single support service to the consumer and world research.

Constantly updated, in DOUBLE VERSION ITALIAN AND ENGLISH, this ‘Corpus Encyclopedic’ has followed, over the years, the technological and informational evolution of the  GIs System helping to bring digital and printed publications.  The PRODUCT info sheet, central element of the systematization of Qualigeo database, includes information and multimedia content (descriptive texts, images, maps, facts and statistics, news, reference standards, disciplinary bodies associated references, social channels, etc …).

The informative heritage that complements the platform comes from continuous monitoring of numerous OFFICIAL SOURCES and from the NETWORK composed of the main players in the sector. The complex informative heritage, underlying the open data Qualigeo platform, is structured in a series of databases from multiple external sources, which through a dynamically organized structure are integrated in order to provide a simple but complete tool for the consumer and world research.
