Encouraged by a great interest for “GIS Solutions for Smart Cities of the 21st Century” webinar, we decided to start with a series of Smart City short webinars, designed specifically for one segment of possible GIS applications for a Smart City.
First webinar in the series is titled GIS Cloud Smart Cities : City Portal, scheduled for next Thursday, February 11, 2016.
A great City Portal is the face of a city, providing an incredible amount of information in just a blink of an eye. Knowing that the key for becoming a smart government is in fresh, accessible and accurate information, city web map is a very good initial step towards being a smart government. Also, it is an excellent source for gaining citizen feedback about government and city infrastructure, resources, projects and much more. Moreover, City Map Portal may serve as a way to drive citizen engagement in a quick and efficient way.
Portal has allowed me to create very detailed and information rich web mapping application with limited resources. (Josh Forner, City of Darwin)
