Abstract: In this paper, we present the design, implementation and publication of a SDI (Spatial Data Infrastructure) geoportal, which links the historical demographic database and early 20th century Madrid mapping. This is a research project developed by the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) in collaboration with the “Dirección General de Estadística” (Statistical Bureau) of the Madrid City Hall. The ultimate goal is to perform geospatial studies from historical demographic sources, enabling the cartographical visualization and representation of a large number of demographic variables (fertility, nuptiality, mortality) occurred in the city in the last century as well as the establishment of a multitemporal comparison of changes in the urban and social structure that took take in the Spanish capital during this period of history which are producing intense migration to the city of Madrid. For the implementation, we have used the REST technology in a environment of object-oriented programming that takes advantage of the dynamism of the applications based in Flex language. This, according to the OGC interoperability standards and the INSPIRE Directive.
