GIS for Citizen Engagement
Wednesday March 7, 2012 - 10:45 am to noon
Citizen participation in redistricting has traditionally been limited to submitting testimony at commission meetings and public hearings. In 2011, the Hawaii Reapportionment Commission made an online GIS application (the same one they used) available to the public to create their own redistricting plans to submit to the commission. In this presentation you'll learn about the online GIS application, how it was used by the public, and how it impacted decisions made by the commission.
