Hi Ton,

there is a nice example in Vienna for a citizen based online crowd sourcing 
platform - http://ubahnaufzug.at/

Vienna citizens can push information to the system where some elevators et al in Viennese
public transport are out of order - the platform then will inform the users about this - and
people (mainly with a handicap) get this information and can plan their ways using public
transport better then before....

Furthermore Ushahidi provids lots of examples in this area where the Ushahidi platform has been used
(I think you know this already?!)

Cheers - Martin

Hi all,

I hope you can help with providing some examples you are aware of in your
own country of collaborative e-gov services.

Let me explain.
I am contributing to a small side-path of a research project for the EU on
collaborative e-government services.

Those are defined as on-line public services where either the government
provides a service which is based on citizen generated data (crowdsourcing
for instance), or where citizens or an organization provides a service using
government data (or also citizen generated data, such as the Japan radiation
map after the quake).

I will be collecting these examples at http://www.ourservices.eu/ , which
site will also post the results of the actual research project once ready.
This to not just have it delivered to the EC, but also published a bit more
widely in a way that those interested have a chance of finding it.

Examples are welcome from all EU member states, as well as outside if they
are especially good ones. At
http://www.ourservices.eu/?q=taxonomy/term/1you can see some diverse
examples of what I mean.

I'd be grateful for any pointers you may have (or bookmark collections etc.)
Particularly if your examples come from countries in whose languages I have
a hard time searching (such as Eastern Europe)

best,

Ton
