Project Description
This is a very cool app created for GovRack, that will encourage people of all ages, from children to adults, to walk more and reduce congestion and parking issues. People will be able to use the able to walk to work, to school, to the markets or anywhere. It will also help saving the environment, reduce pollution and make the world a better place. I am only 9 years old, and I want to be able to live in a great world, for me ... for two daddies and for all of my family! Thank you, GovHack, for allowing me to express my ideas and change the world!
Data Story
My Papai, one of my daddies, helped me with this. We looked at lots of data from the government and also some data from NSW and from the BOM. It was very cool investigating all these things
NSW Urban Vegetation Cover to Modified Mesh Block 2016
Description of Use
We think this information will also be very nice. It will suggest the most amazing places where people can walk - places with lots of trees and lots of green areas. We think that walking alongside trees and green areas will for sure bring smiles on peoples faces.

BOM is amazing. It will help us telling everyone if the weather is going to be good as they step outside for their walks. It is important for everyone to enjoy their walks ... and to make sure that they take an umbrella as well - in case it is going to rain. This BOM site will help telling the weather forecast - it will be very useful.

Data Set
New vehicle registrations—by year
Description of Use
This database shows how much people spend money on buying news cars. My Papai and I think this show there are so many new cars on the road. Maybe people can spend less money on cars and more money on the environment (and parks, bikes, skateboards, etc)
Data Set
SoE2017: Vehicle emissions
Description of Use
This information will be very good, can you see just how much pollution cars make to the environment? It is just so much. We need to make sure everybody knows that. If everyone knows that I am sure people will leave their cars at home and walk a lot more.
Data Set
