2014 Code for America Summit: More than a Vendor- Partnering with Startups to Accelerate Government Innovation In recent years, a new wave of government-focused technology startups have appeared in the marketplace: Subscription-based, cloud-hosted companies that take advantage of technology trends to provide online services that are often significantly lighter, cheaper, and easier to maintain than custom-built solutions. These companies are looking to have a different relationship with the governments they sell to: as partners, not just vendors, working together to figure out how new technologies can solve today’s problems. These vendors are ready and willing to roll up their sleeves to help figure out what you need to improve your city.

Notes de l'éditeur
- Hello everyone. [smile, breath]. Thanks for being here. My name is Ryan Branciforte. I am the co-founder and CEO of Trailhead Labs. [start slow]
- Hope you get out and enjoy a few of our amazing parks 1 million acres Setting aside land for the benefit and enjoyment of people, this has be our government’s greatest innovations!
- This is one of my favorite parks, the Marin Headlands and it is just a short bus ride away! There are many spots like this, unfortunately, it’s still really hard to find information about these places and plan trips to visit them.
- The El Sobrante B&G, a wonderful org in the east bay wanted to get their kids out during their summer program, but struggled to find local park and trails In fact, there are lots of amazing parks, but information not easily accessible. Why? Because park agencies don’t have the mechanisms to get park information into the hands of visitors in the way they have come to expect, modern digital maps and applications.
- I’ve worked for park agencies and non-profits for over 15 years 2008, we built T&T with OSC One of the more popular outdoor apps in the region, but it was not easy! In particular, getting the trails information was a challenge
- - Worked with dozens of local park agencies including the Boys & Girls Club Learned why building an app is hard and ultimately why visitors struggle with getting into parks Data locked up in pdf maps Data is in many different formats Great print maps, but lack modern digital maps
- At THL, we’re giving park agencies the superpower of open data so they can build awesome digital maps and improve visitor experience. [Pause] Let me tell you how we are doing this.
- First, we need to build a foundation of open and accessible park data.
- We’ve already seen this happen with public transit. Over 15 thousand cities across 6 continents have adopted GTFS and as a result millions of people have access to accurate and current transit information.
- So we are working closely with CfA, NRPA and many others on OpenTrails, a new open data standard focused entirely on visitor use applications.
- This community is growing fast Just last month we held the first OT course
- 20 agencies in 8 states from Anchorage, Alaska to Boulder, Colorado to Wake County, North Carolina have already adopted OpenTrails.
- We are also building OuterSpatial, an outdoor platform that uses OpenTrails and helps park agencies, ngos, developers, and outdoor companies: Build awesome digital park maps Publish park data to an ecosystem of apps Make outdoor apps easier and cheaper to build
- We are core contributors to OpenTrails Mobile, the first of many applications to consume park information using the standard You can have your park data in a free app with a few clicks – something that would have taken countless hours and dollars before
- So, how do you ensure that your citizens getting the best information about your parks and trails? Adopt OT and sign up for OS Join cities, counties and states across the country working toward a Common vision – all agencies have awesome digital park maps and apps.
- Then students at B&G and millions of other citizens across the country will be able to easily find and plan trips to amazing parks and trails everywhere!
- As we give parks the superpower of open data!
- - So we are working closely with CfA, NRPA and many others on OpenTrails, a new open data standard focused entirely on visitor use applications.
