Jonna KangasojaCity of Helsinki
TED Workshop21 May 2005
Current Challenges
• History of the development of e-participation in the City of Helsinki builds of pilot projects (e.g. ‘Home Street’, ‘Net Maunula’)
• How to integrate the line organization with the project organization?
• Institutional mediations (Anttiroiko 2003) are most critical in the development of new deliberative forms of democracy
The City of Helsinki’s IT-strategy 2003 – 2006
• Comprehensive e-Services for residents: applications, permits, notices, appointments, reservations etc. handled also electronically by all departments of the City
• Data-secure and confidential dealings with the City administration and service producers for individuals and business enterprises
• Multi-channel provision of advice and information services
• New GIS-based citizen services via www
GIS-based services are popular
The www.hel.fi site contains 100 000 pages with total 6 million hits/year
The existing map service http://kartta.hel.fi page has 400 000 searches/week
Web Based Map and Geospatial Information Services
• Regarded as central tool in implementing the City’s IT and e-Service strategy
• Future vision of Citizen’s eGovernance services: possibility to get address/location based information on all on-going municipal projects, service points, contact persons.
• Organizational challenge: Tradition of strong and fairly autonomous departments and administrations.
• ‘GIS core group’ – a horizontal topical structure of expertise inside the City.
•There are over 14 GIS-based services in the design or development phases
•Web-based map and geospatial information service by the City Survey Division
•Soil survey information service by the Geotechnical Division of the Real Estate Department
•Real time town plan service by the City Planning Department
•Building Permit Service ARSKA by the Building Regulation Department
•Regional library application HELMET
Pilot projects
GIS and the City Planning Department
• A web-based service offering real-time information on city plans under preparation (town plans, subdivision plans, traffic planning projects etc.)
• Up-dating is distributed, embedded in the normal work practices of the department
• Dynamic map, moving on the map, searching with place name, address
• The whole trajectory a project from the beginning until the plan gets a legal status
• Future: developing the interactive component
