ABSTRACT
The paper1 deals with the problem of answering users queries searching for convenient paths to sequentially visit a number or relevant retrieved territorial resources and services. An exemplification is described by illustrating a Smart community-based Geographic infoRmation rEtrievAl SysTem (SO-GREAT) that collects and manages heterogeneous georeferenced data about both authoritative resources and services offered by volunteers. Paths through relevant retrieved resources are automatically generated and ranked based by considering personal priorities.
