Project Description
Our application provides a platform for community consultation about public facilities and points of interest. It provides data on existing infrastructure and allows users to create additional observations. bVocal also allows users to engage in Geo-location specific dialogue to promote community and government involvement and solutions.
Data Story
We used local council data to present a visualisation on the location of local council infrastructure. bVocal allows for community input and consultation on these locations as well as the ability to add new questions, comments and hazards to the dataset. bVocal is an evolving dataset that continues to grow with it's community. bVocal helps governments make decisions by providing a mechanism to engage with the community and understand their needs.

More than apps and maps: help government decide with data
How can we combine data to help government make their big and small decisions? Government makes decisions every day—with long term consequences such as the location of a school, or on a small scale such as the rostering of helpdesk staff.
Eligibility: Use at least two data sets (at least one from data.gov.au) to help government make a decision that will improve services for people. Any code produced for your entry must be published on github under an open license. If your entry is not software, you will need to show the working behind your use of data along with any calculations and analysis you did. You must indicate which specific government agency (at any level of government) can take action based on your entry.
