What is Transparency? 
Let’s Get Started 
The concept of open data 
and public sector data 
transparency is hardly new. 
Providing constituents 
with access to the important 
information that impacts 
their lives and communities 
is not just good policy, 
it’s common sense.
Getting Started 
Socrata Service Connect 
Service Connect enables anyone to 
visualize their Citizen Services (311 and 
other data) in an easily understood format. 
1. Encourage community based self-service 
and discovery. 
2. Deliver powerful and compelling visualizations that 
educate citizens on the services being consumed 
in their neighborhood. 
3. Empower administrators to gain unique insights 
into the areas of the application that is important to 
site visitors 
4. Enable a rich out of the box customization 
model to create a uniquely immersive 
community experience.
