Public service


           

In this era of connected objects, Smart Cities and individual hypermobility, the use of Geographical Information System (GIS) technologies seems to be the must-have solution for sharing geographical information and improving public services.
 
Thanks to intelligent geo-location, collaborative technologies and the creation of geographical portals, local authorities now have powerful tools at their disposal for transforming their level of engagement and interaction with the people they serve and for forging a strong and enduring relationship.

Publishing and sharing information

Information publication and sharing : geo-portals

Geographical Information Systems make it possible to create comprehensive mapping applications for consulting and updating geographical information. Available on the Internet, these geo-portals assist the publication of geographical information and collaborative work. Based on the latest web development advances, cartographic portals offer optimal performance on very high-traffic websites.
Thanks to GIS technologies, government departments (health, land management, geographical institutes), and local authorities (regions, departments, grouping of local authorities, towns) are now offering members of the general public geographical information portals, enabling them to have a better understanding of their place of residence, thereby strengthening ties between the authorities and those they administer.
 
In just a few clicks, members of the public can access a precious and comprehensive source of information : institutions, businesses, leisure, historical and cultural heritage, bottle, textile and battery recycling banks, reserved parking bays...), temperatures, major risks (flooding, fires), road networks, 2D and 3D information, relief data, aerial photos…
 
For the authorities, these geo-portals also represent an efficient way of targeting their communication : organizing the movements of Highways Agency technicians’ with regard to setting up a new construction site, notifying hygiene officers having to cope with requirements and route changes, alerting users whose travel movements will be affected by these highway changes...
Beyond the publication of information, there are numerous features that help members of the public and public service users to organize their travel, such as route calculation (e.g. which is the shortest route to get to the town hall ?) and to identify points of interest, such as looking for infrastructure close to a given point (e.g. : which is the closest hospital to my home ?)
 
Examples of geographical portals for the general public :


 

Contribution and collaboration : geo-reporting

Cartographic portals and the latest GIS technological innovations put members of the public and public service users at the very heart of information systems and encourage collaboration.
The most connected towns can thus offer their residents, or those passing through, geo-located information : provision of new customized services, real time consultation of tourist information...
For their part, members of the public can now easily upload geo-located information to the municipal authorities : reporting deterioration in the urban environment for faster scheduling of clean-up operations, publishing photos depicting points of interest...
