Itineraries to facilitate the publication of local open data using the AOC portal (2/3)

The open data, the data sets produced or collected by public bodies that are made available to citizens, have great potential value and are essential to guarantee the transparència of public administrations, efficiency and equal opportunities when creating wealth.

This is the second publication of a total of three with which we want to show you an overview of the state of data open to the local world and propose a itinerary based on three phases to encourage the use of data open to your body. We present the second phase.

OPEN DATA AND ITINERARIES PROPOSED BY THE AOC

  • Second phase: opening of the platform to open data of the entities

Beyond the supramunicipal open data that we provide by default, the second level that we propose from the AOC offers local bodies an agile, simple and customizable open data portal, which allows you to publish your own data in open and reusable format and at the same time federate them in an open data portal of the Catalan local world.

This phase is designed for those who have or can create their own data sets and want to publish them on the AOC portal and link their own graphic resources: tables, maps, graphs.

At this stage we find mostly large municipalities, although each time small and medium-sized municipalities are showing more interest and are beginning to make progress in the service. Globally about twenty local entities they already have their own data sets from the AOC solution and currently the own sets generated already exceed globally the 150 data sets.

At this level we find municipalities such as:

It should be noted that other bodies such as the Diputació de Tarragona or the AOC Consortium itself are users of this service and currently a good number of municipalities such as Sant Cugat del Vallès, Calafell, Matadepera, Parets del Vallès, or county councils such as Baix Camp, among others, are working to start publishing datasets in a short period of time.

These are four examples interesopen data saints published via the AOC portal:

1.- Actions of the municipal brigade in the open data portal of Tarragona City Council

Actions of the municipal brigade in the open data portal of Tarragona City Council

The City of Tarragona publishes in the open actions of the municipal brigade and cleaning in the city from 2014 to the present. The information, beyond the data tables, includes georeferenced maps made with Instamaps (ICGC) with the points and concentrations of actions in the territory.

The Tarragona DDOO portal is one of the pioneers in the use of the AOC portal and includes many other layers interessaints such as: weather data, electric vehicle charging points or gifts, invitations and trips from elected officials. More information at Tarragona City Council open data portal.

2.- Empty commercial premises available on the open data portal of Granollers City Council

The Granollers Town Council publishes in the open data on empty commercial premises available. The information is also published georeferenced using maps made with Leaflet, a solution generated directly by the portal.

Granollers is the first city council to publish this data with an AOC solution and, as in all the new proposals that arise from the local world, its incorporation into the next version of the guide to data set standardization models which currently has 18 proposals that we are enriching.

The open data portal of Granollers City Council includes many other layers insideeressaints such as: ships and plots available in the estates, routes around the city, playgrounds or situation of defibrillators. More information at Granollers City Council open data portal.

3.- Data of population profiles and visitors to the open data portal of Sitges City Council

The Sitges City Council has been the latest to join the publication of its own data using the AOC portal and although, for now, only with 3 sets of its own data. It has started with very interesting dataeressaints.

Specifically, it has published the dataset of population and visitor profiles (based on data from mobile phone operators). This information allows them to extrapolate topics both interessaints such as daily overnight stays, single-day visits according to nationality... It will serve them to share with hoteliers to improve management or have more resources to reduce illegal tourist beds / rooms. You can visit the Sitges City Council open data portal.

4.- Data of registration of entities of the municipality in the portal of open data of the City council of The Preses

The City Council of Les Preses publishes its open registration of municipal entities.

The case of Les Preses is very interesting.eressant because it is the smallest City Council user of the service (less than 2.000 inhabitants). Currently Les Preses already has 4 published data sets of its own and uses as a basis for its work two essential documents that are offered among the resources of the service:

You can visit it open data portal of the City of Les Preses

Beyond the four examples above, we also point you to different ones links from other open data portals pioneers with the AOC solution, where you can find a multitude of parameterized datasets with standard models and datasets with different graphic resources or int mapseressaints:

To advance in this second proposed phase we accompany you with a series of technical and dissemination resources:
