Real Time Open Data (RTOD) is a middleware that provides access to content from different sources though a single access point. This component can be installed on any deployment that includes the Open Data module.
Most current organizations have a heterogeneity of systems, products and back-ends which hold information that is susceptible to be published in Open Data / Open Government Portals. These systems store all the information in different structures using their own metadata, structural/ordering rules, architecture and access mechanisms.
Therefore, the main problem that solves RTOD is the automated extraction of content from different institutional back-ends to incorporate them, in an automated way, to an open data catalog..
Currently RTOD offers different alternatives for the extraction and automated updating of content through drivers.
