The challenge
A resident who wants to know when garden waste is collected on their street should not have to call the hotline. And a department planning a bike lane needs to know the road width, where the parking is and where the trees stand before anyone starts drawing.

The solution
We built a set of ArcGIS Online apps: a waste and pruning collection-day map with search by address or location, comparison maps that show two maps side by side, thematic maps for residents, a road cross-section survey recording bike lanes, bus lanes, parking, road width and trees, and self-survey forms for collecting information in the field.

The outcome
Residents look up their collection days by address in a public app, and planners work from an organised road cross-section layer instead of measuring each street again.
