Data applications are reshaping government transparency, panel says
New technologies and resources are helping local and federal organizations deliver large amounts of data to the public. And according to one SXSW Interactive panel, this availability is extremely convenient in a time of budget crises and transparency demands.
Jeremiah Akin, team lead of the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts’ data team, and Michael Castellon, e-communications coordinator and editor with the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, said many agencies are turning to Google Maps and Google Earth, and are using KML data to visualize raw information online and on mobile devices. Their panel, “Why visualizing government data makes taxpayers happy,” took place at the Austin Convention Center on March 12.
