The present paper aims to verify a statistical procedure that allows for the
transition from aggregate indicators to disaggregate indicators, whereas in this case, the
terms aggregate/disaggregate refer to territorial areas and not to categories. More
specifically, an attempt was made to reconstruct the indicators of the infrastructural
endowment at the provincial level (in Italy) on the basis of analogous indicators that are
available at the regional level. For such purposes, Chow-Lin’s approach was followed,
and some regressors representing the territorial demand for infrastructure, related to
productive, demographic and tourist aspects were used. The comparison between the
results obtained through the application of the mentioned approach and the “real” data
(available at the provincial level) in effect allows for the verification of the coherence
among factors of demand and the real distribution of the infrastructure in Italy
