Community Maps: Digital and Social Geographies of Great Britain
This tool aims raise awareness of digital and social exclusion at a local level and to provide information to support performance management and local service delivery by local authorities and their partners in public, private and third sector organisations. The web based interactive tool places digital (e.g. internet take-up), social (e.g. household income) and resource (e.g. UK online centres) data on a map at a community level. Datasets have been provided by partners including Experian, Point Topic, University of Essex, Connection Services Ltd, UK online centres and Citizens online. This is a pilot web site for 1 year to test demand for this kind of data at a local authority level. The tool can be found at Digital and Social Geographies
