Open Source Database

Simmering-Vienna, Austria (2016)
Scale: City Level
The use of database is essential in all modern project management. The essential question is hence whether the data collecting and processing changes in the implementation process are open source or the solution is vendor locked. Smarter Together Vienna chose an open source solution based on FIWARE.

Citizen Participation

In the context of ICT solutions, the term "citizens" applies first and foremost to the users respectively the staff dealing with databases.

 

In addition, the database was promoted within an ICT Challenge (with some 6000 participants), where more specifically two groups of “nerds” developed in a hackathon two apps on the base of the database. 

 

The general public was invited to attend a thematic district walk where the usage of urban data was showcased. Also, information on the FIWARE database was included in all general project information and promotion
