Government 2.0 is about enabling a new approach to citizens and Government working together in a collaborative manner on matters of mutual concern\nIdeally, collaboration should be capable of being initiated by either Government or Citizen\nThis is an example from North Sydney Council, Australia in which citizens can participate in determining budget priorities\nThe citizen can choose to increase, decrease or not alter spending under the budget headings\nTheir selections are totalled interactively so that they can see whether they are over or under budget and if over budget what the

out walkability or permeability analysis\nThis map indicates the local and regional services areas in Blanchardstown (locations of shops, doctors, etc.)\n","15":"Progress is also being made at National level in Ireland\n","91":"Collaborate\nThis example is from Melbourne, Australia\nHere the draft City Development Plan is published as a Wiki and the public can directly edit the Plan\nThere is also a discussion page relating to each section of the plan where suggestions can be outlined or changes justified\nAll versions are retained to enable comparison between versions of the Plan\nOnce the public consultation phase is complete, the Council deliberates on the contributions to organise, refine and incorporate ideas in the most practical way\n","72":"While the apps4fingal concentrated on Fingal services, many of the Apps incorporate data from other services and across the whole of the Dublin region.\nIn addition, most could scale up to National or International services.\nOne App that has been developed since the competition and which makes use of Open Data is KidsMaps.\nThis takes the playground data from the Fingal Open Data site, but also includes playground data sourced from most of the Local Authorities in Ireland.\nThis is a great example of how Apps based on Open Data can be scalable.\n","139":"To conclude\nData is a fundamental requirement for evidence-based decision making - in this case in the planning and design processes\nVisualisation and mapping allows us and the public to engage with and understand complex data; and to understand places\nOpen Data is a platform for opening up the decision-making processes\nIt enables Open Government which allows for increased citizen participation\nOpen Data and technology developments including Social Media and the proliferation of location aware mobile devices enable new approaches to design and civic governance\nIn particular, I would strongly urge that any design mapping produced is captured digitally in a manner that facilitates reuse by others – in GIS systems, Google Maps, Bing Maps, Apps, etc. – and published as Open Data where possible\nAs I mentioned earlier, Fingal Open Data is available at data.fingal.ie\nAnd you can also follow us on Twitter at fingalopendata\n","101":"FixYourStreet is an open transparent tool for reporting problems to Local Government\nIt also has an Open Data dimension, as the data is exposed for developers to write programs that comsume the data behind the site – location, details and resolution of Reported issues\n","25":"www.dublinked.ie\n","63":"Winner of the Ideas Category was Fingal Deals\nThe Fingal Deals App idea is intended to encourage people to shop locally in Fingal and give local businesses a boost. The app would showcase current special offers and discounts offered by a wide variety of businesses, and could be refined into business type categories to facilitate searches. \n","6":"Gives us the ability to profile a place\nPopulation, Age, Social Class, Deprivation, Unemployment, Social Housing, School goers\nTo plan a place you must know a place\n","111":"We use a walkability measure of 700m.\nWhen calculated by a straight line method (as the crow flies) this indicated that the majority of the households were within a 700m catchment of services\n","54":"The Public Service Reform Plan was published in November 2011\n","92":"Last 3 Development Plans produced with GIS\nStarted using in 1997 – 1999, 2006 & 2011 Plans\n2006 Plan live in Council Chamber – interactive visualisation (inc.

They can also specify whether they are travelling with children or disabled passengers.\nThe app will then suggest a day trip in the local area, showing locations of interest on the map. It also provides the option of getting the route and driving directions for the trip and details of each attraction.\n","7":"So, we have seen the importance of demographic and administrative data in the Fingal Data Hub; spatial data in the Development Plan; physical infrastructure and services data in the Greater Blanchardstown Initiative\nIn the summer of 2010, Fingal County Council became aware of the Open Data movement\nOpen Data is …\n","83":"Open Data plays an important role in Open Government\n","131":"Open Data plays an important role in Open Government\n","112":"However, people don’t walk as the crow flies – they need to use roads and paths\nWhen the calculation is run across the route network, the catchment area shrinks dramatically\n","17":"Fingal County Council launched the first Open Data website in the country in November 2010\nFingal Open Data evolved from the principles of the Fingal Data Hub and the Open Data movement.\nIn Summer 2010 we were preparing a report with data about all Local Authorities which was difficult to find and only available in PDF\nWe discovered the Open Data movement and felt that this was a better way\nWe decided to take the initiative with the backing of the County Manager and Fingal Open Data was born\nIt is available at data.fingal.ie\nThe website, which you can see on screen, provides public access to source data from Council systems.\n","55":"The eGovernment Action plan contains 3 specific actions relating to Open Data\nAll public bodies will publish Open Data\nData published in reports should also be published in parallel in open formats\nPublic bodies will identify data holdings and release by default\n","93":"Fingal County Council provided an online submissions facility as part of the consultation process for our last Development Plan\n","141":"In line with the theme, this presentation is licenced for sharing under a Creative Commons licence\nIt is available for viewing and downloading on slideshare\nThank you.\n","122":"In addition, members of the public can rate the streets to improve the accuracy of the rating\n","103":"The FixYourStreet approach has been taken a step further\nAs well as allowing people to let ue know where there are problems, why not let them suggest where servcies should be located\nFixcity.org Bike Racks website evolved from New York City looking at how it could maximise the value of its CRM investment\nThe website enables citizens to identify a location where they believe bike racks should be provided, to include a photo of the location and to outline their reasons for the suggested location\nOther citizens can vote on the suggestions\nCitizens can also check whether their suggested location meets Bike Rack Location Guidelines to see racks provided sooner\n","65":"Winner of the Community Apps Category was Fingal Traffic View\nFingal Traffic View is an Android Mobile App which provides information about traffic cameras, parking zones, disabled parking, train stations and Garda safety zones. \nThese are displayed on a map and users can also view images from the traffic cameras.
