Recap of Projects nights!
Project #1: Working with Brian Black to deploy FOIA project
-
Platform to file FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) requests
Need to improve workflows
Project #2: hnl.info
Very open-ended project - much freedom. so choices.
Russell created a trello for the project
Perhaps work on a map interface? (e.g., where are the parks? relationship to TOD?)
Project #3: data dashboard
One stop shop for all open data that are released in Hawaii, needs to be curated
-
better to start out with limited datasets and grow from there
Use of Socrata
Project #4: Allb.us
Ryan created this years ago - update and make the app?
How do we get people to use it?
SO, these are the projects, where are we gonna put them?
Sites/examples we like:
-
-
-
Showcasing the team –> equally as important as the project itself
Should we add these to the homepage of the website?
Creation of projects on homepage - is this Project #0.5?
