What is Building a smarter community : GIS for state and local government about?
**Provide open data, balance decisions and initiatives, and create equitable policies.** Smart communities don't wait for someone to deem them smart; they take action. State and local governments worldwide have taken that first step using geographic information system (GIS) technology. Applying GIS to planning and urban design, public works operations, and racial equity and social justice has helped meet citizens' needs and improve government operations. And with advancements in smart technology, location intelligence for state and local governments is not just for GIS specialists. More informed, data-driven decisions lead to improved outcomes that can be shared and replicated in other communities, helping citizens and government collaborate for the common good. __Building a Smarter Community: GIS for State and Local Government__ shows how government leaders in cities, counties, and states have applied GIS for improved planning, operations, and civic inclusion. In this collection of case studies and guidance to get started, learn how GIS: - Helped planners visualize affordable housing patterns in Honolulu, Hawaii - Radically changed stormwater management practices in Salinas County
