Make better decisions on critical local government issues
Introducing the GIS Playbook for Local Government Leaders, featuring 70+ innovative ways to navigate today’s municipal, county-level and regional challenges using a geographic approach.
Cities and local communities are at the forefront of critical issues like housing, climate change, public health, infrastructure development and more. But how are city managers, CAOs, municipal executives and other leaders in local government innovating to meet the rising challenge of issues like these?
One way is by taking a geographic approach to these problems. By better understanding the where of their communities—where people are, where assets are, where opportunities and challenges are—government leaders can more confidently tackle modern challenges. They achieve this using advanced geographic information system (GIS) technology, which captures, maps and derives insights from the geographic context in which cities and communities exist.
The GIS Playbook for Local Government Leaders takes you through more than 70 high-impact use cases targeting the most pressing and complex concerns facing communities today, in areas including:
- Public health and safety
- Housing
- Climate change and sustainability
- Economic recovery and growth
- Infrastructure and transportation
- Education & workforce development
- Equity & social justice
- Governance & transparency
Accompanied by real-world examples of how GIS is helping Canadian cities and communities to achieve their goals, these use cases will help you leverage the strategic power of a technology you likely already have in your back pocket.
