mission
| create interactive mapping applications and location-based services
| with social added value
| by combining and enriching different (open) data-sources smartly
| making it easily accesible
Concerns - status
• Accessibility: by car seems only way
• No clear overview on other transport options
• Very fragmented initiatives
• No link with jobs
• Difficulty of adresses in Port Areas
• Difficult target group
• No info on companies and their offer for mobility
concerns
• Inform jobseekers on transport options and job offer
• Final target group : jobseekers far removed from the labor market or without a car
• Focus on Accessibility of the Port of Antwerp

objectives
• Forge partnerships
• Explore and collect (existing) open data• Static (xls, shape, ...)
• Dynamic online services (API, xml-request, REST, ...)
• Involve Stakeholders
approach
forging partnerships
• Better assessing the situation
• Data-sharers (remove reluctance to share)
• Feedback
• Open up data
• Easily accessible and digitally available
• Integrate as much as possible external services and tools
• Combine, link and enrich for new insights by visualization and interactive map
explore and collect (existing) data
• Federal Government• data on commuter traffic of companies
• Port of Antwerp• Companies location (polygons)
• Quay numbers
• Mobility infrastructure• Public Transport (busstations, train stations)
• Bike parkings, safe routes, velo-stations
• Carpool Parkings
• Collective transport (i-bus, linkeroeverpendel)
• Location data on jobcoaches and job services
used static data
used dynamic data services
• VDAB-vacancy service
• CRAB adress service AGIV
• GIPOD service AGIV
used external tools
• DeLijn – arrivals/departures
• NMBS – arrivals
• Google Maps Routing
• Informative Websites on initiatives
involving Stakeholders
• Jobcoaches, employment agencies
• Make links to their information
• Put them on the map
result is a starting point• Informative Tool primarily for jobcoaches (but also publicly
available)
• Easy access to vacancies, transport options and companies mobility offer
• 1st application with VDAB vacancy service
• 1st interactive publication on commuter traffic offer of companies in the Port of Antwerp
• Integration of data on quay & port numbers and correct adresses
way forward
• Improve multi-modal options and routing
• Involve companies or organisation (voka, portofantwerp) to add, update and edit data dynamically
• Improve vacancy completeness and location specific
• Mobile application
• Integrate as a service in other services (open?) - vdab or company pages
lessons learned• Partnerships and data-sharers
• Fragmented – good integration and implementation is needed
• Try to use consistent and existing services, combining them into a new enriched one
