A family of linear LRC codes that generalize the classic construction of Reed-Solomon codes was constructed in a recent paper by I. Tamo and A. Barg. In this paper we extend this construction to codes on algebraic curves. We give a general construction of LRC codes on curves and compute some examples, including asymptotically good families of codes derived from the Garcia- Stichtenoth towers. The local recovery procedure is performed by polynomial interpolation over r coordinates of the codevector. We also obtain a family of Hermitian codes with two disjoint recovering sets for every symbol of the codeword. %G English %L hal-01220138 %U https://hal.science/hal-01220138 %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-AMU %~ EC-MARSEILLE %~ I2M %~ I2M-2014-
