Possibilities of open data - A work in progress #dp5
- 1. @msaifq @CKSdotIN#dp5 The Possibilities of Open Data
- 4. @msaifq @CKSdotIN#dp5 theyworkforyou.com UK + ZNasichDani Slovakia
- 5. @msaifq @CKSdotIN#dp5 nextdrop.org • Works with water distribution networks and informs when taps will be hydrated via SMS alerts. • Subscription based model (`10-25 pm). 50% less for BPL. • Informed atleast 60mins before water reached the locality. • Missed call to subscribe ->ease of use. • Data feedback loops create a good balance between demand & supply. • Users no longer need to wait for hours expecting water. • Users ‘feel liberated’ and can now focus on other work than just wait. • Anti leaking squad being set up now.
- 6. @msaifq @CKSdotIN#dp5 Rainbow: weather forecasting webapp + mandi prices + NextDrop… • Multiple networked datasets are more valuable than a solitary set. • Perfect example of making multiple datasets talk to each other and churn out something more substantial. • Combines • live market(mandi prices) - weather forecasting - dam water level/irrigation updates - suitable crops for the field & those currently available - details about vendors of seeds, fertilizers, etc. • Provides info via the app or SMS CONS: Access, language barriers and consistency.
- 7. @msaifq @CKSdotIN#dp5 TrashIt • Commissioner of Municipal Administration, Tamil Nadu & ThoughWorks organised the CMA Hackathon on Code for Urban Governance. • CMA opened up datasets from 135 municipalities for the Hackathon. • The winner TrashIt is an Android app which gamifies garbage collection and disposal. - A ‘user’ will tag a garbage with a photo and assign a bounty to it. - Another ‘user’ can claim the bounty by clearing the garbage. - Bounty can be availed by uploading before and after pictures.
- 10. @msaifq @CKSdotIN#dp5 TO INFINITY AND BEYOND • Government as a platform • Leverage existing networks of social media • Make all data communicate and talk to each other • Focus on design, UI and UX has a huge impact • Tap into youth power reserves ->more hackathons! • Users/citizens much more active now • Operating costs minimal so larger reach • data.gov.in data sets have to be updated regularly. Learn from the stock market maybe? “Not power over people, but power with people.” -Esko Kilpi
