Encourage the publication of public information on portals transparència in a clear, understandable, practical and reusable way, are key elements to help citizens access and interpret the public information available on the portals.
In this sense, from the Berguedà County Council have worked on a good practice regarding the improvement of the visualization of data in different sections of the portal transparència, mainly in the “Agreements and subsidies” section. This good practice consists of facilitating the visualization of data in the form of graphs and thus being able to filter different items of interest.
The data shown in the different graphs are automatically fed from the Open Data portal of the entity itself. In the case of the items of agreements and subsidies, the data sets are those provided by the AOC Consortium, while for the item of Resolutions of the requests for access to public information a data set has been created. own. For this last item, the County Council has been inspired by the solution recently provided by the Diputació de Barcelona to the SeTDIBA town councils.
Once these views are published on the portal transparència of the Regional Council, have begun to be implemented on the portals of the town councils of the Berguedà region with whom the Regional Council has signed a collaboration agreement to give a boost to digital management and transparència, such as at the Casserres Town Hall, where we indicate the link to the views implemented in the collaboration agreement item.
As you have been able to see, it is worth highlighting the great work carried out by the Berguedà Regional Council in favour of a transparència focused on citizens, making it easier and simpler to consult the information provided on the portal transparència.
Commenting on the impact of the work with the area of digital administration of the County Council of Berguedà emphasize that "The transparència must go beyond the simple fact of publishing the information required by law 19/2014. This advertising must be done in a visual and understandable way for citizens, proactively and with a focus on the reuse of information and the tools that allow it to be displayed. In this sense, we believe that the experiences we are carrying out to improve the transparència to the town councils of the Berguedà region and to the Regional Council itself, using the AOC solutions of transparència and open data, a standard in the territory within the reach of any local entity.”
From the AOC we completely agree with this vision and we continue to monitor all those good practices that facilitate it, with the intention of being able to move forward to design and automate new views in the items of our portal.
