Abstract
Designing Redwood City's Community GIS: Opportunities & Challenges
Track: Web Apps
Authors: Stephen de Jong, Joe Marvin
In 2009, the City of Redwood City released its first public facing GIS to provide citizens, developers, and staff remote access to spatial data. Recently, the City upgraded this system to an ArcGIS Server application using the JavaScript API. The ESRI local government templates were used as a starting point, but a fair amount of customization was added. This presentation focuses on the opportunities and challenges met during the design process.
