Tarragona centralizes the management of municipal censuses in a single web tool: DigiCanvis

The City Council of Tarragona has developed CensAT, its own tool that allows centrally manage all municipal registers and censusesThe solution makes it easier for the organization to work with a single data source, updated, coherent and accessible to all staff.

Many city councils manage their censuses and records in multiple files or non-integrated applications, which causes duplication, errors and inefficiencies. To solve this, Tarragona has created a digital platform that unifies, standardizes and digitizes all municipal information.

This solution is documented in theDigiCanvis Observatory as an innovative initiative of the local administration. 

That is?

CensAT is a data management application that allows you to design and maintain municipal censuses in a structured way, with functionalities to consult, create or modify records from an intuitive interface very similar to a spreadsheet, but with more guarantees such as access control, audit of changes and integration with other municipal systems. 

What are the benefits?

  • Single and coherent data: eliminates redundancy and dispersion of information.
  • Efficiency and agility: Reduces the time spent maintaining and updating records.
  • Security and control: guarantees the traceability of all changes and allows you to establish roles and access permissions.
  • Shared information: the data is available to all departments, improving internal coordination.
  • Basis for decision-making: facilitates the intelligent exploitation of data and the generation of reliable indicators.

The system has been in operation since 2020 and currently integrates 65 censuses and 440 entities in production, which provide services to various municipal departments.
