Information Hub for Cornwall Community Safety Partnership -

Amethyst were one of the early innovators in the area of data sharing and crime mapping in the UK. They established a relatively sophisticated solution which went live in 2002. Their work was seen as best practice and referenced in GIS and Crime Mapping (Spencer Chainey & Jerry Ratcliffe) and Crime Mapping - Improving Performance (Police Standards Unit).

Community Health Profiles for England - Association of Public Health Observatories (APHO), UK

"Health Profiles provide a snapshot of health for each local council in England using key health indicators, which enables comparison locally, regionally and over time. We leveraged the power of Instant Atlas Server to display this complex data in an intuitive visual interface which would be equally useable by analysts, public health professionals and the public alike. Geowise could not have been more professional or cooperative in helping us achieve our vision on time and on budget."

Gary Bates, Senior Applications Developer, South West Public Health Observatory

Economic Performance and Competitiveness Atlas - BAK Basel, Switzerland

Instant Atlas Display English Indices of Deprivation 2007 - Blackpool Council

This Instant Atlas display was created to show viewers custom ranges rather than dividing the data into equal intervals or quantiles for the Index of Multiple Deprivation 2007 and its seven domains of deprivation. Some Local Area Agreement work is based on areas with the 3% most deprived nationally for the Index of Multiple Deprivation. This enables the viewer to sort the data and easily see where the highest pockets of deprivation in Blackpool are located. Custom ranges are created by classifying the data as categoric rather than numeric in the Data Manager.

Blackpool Council Local Election 2007 - Blackpool Council

This Instant Atlas display enabled us to present live interactive election results on the council website within minutes of the results being made available. The viewer can see the Winning Party, total votes and candidate details by selecting an area on the map.

Atlas of Deprivation - Bournemouth Borough Council

"The Performance Profile template has proved its usefulness in the presentation of this complex dataset. There are eight indicators available for each Lower Layer Super Output Area (LSOA). For each indicator, there is also comparison available with the previous release of the same dataset (2004). The performance profile has proved flexible enough to display the rank and score of all indicators for 2007, the rank of the corresponding indicator for 2004 (as a "target bar") and eye-catching symbols to highlight areas that have changed by "one" or "two or more" quintiles (in terms of national rank) from 2004 to 2007."

Neighbourhood Atlas -

Child and Maternity Health Observatory (ChiMat) - Yorkshire & Humberside Public Health Observatory (YHPHO)

InstantAtlas Server provided the ChiMat team with an adaptable solution for managing and presenting quantitative data that was inexpensive and quick to implement. We were able to purchase the software and go live within three months. It was easy for our web designer to brand the InstantAtlas Server mini-site to match the ChiMat site. The highly interactive atlases delivered through the Data Views module are more engaging than static images. They allow users to explore our data and provide answers leaving our team to focus on more complex queries. The needs assessment modules we have produced through the Profile Reports module will make individuals within PCTs more productive by reducing the time it takes to produce needs assessments with local data.

The County Profile contains the key indicators needed to quickly assess the overall health situation in each county. InstantAtlas enables the user to see indicator values for individual counties as well as make county-to-county comparisons and to the state averages. Using InstantAtlas for the presentation of health information will significantly simplify and enhance the use of our indicators."

Dr. Wolfgang Hellmeier, Head of Health Indicators Unit, LIGA

Newhamd Information System (NIMS) - London Borough of Newham

This atlas was prepared for the Neighbourhood Information Management System (NIMS) Team of London Borough of Newham to present nationally ranked scores of multiple deprivation at small area level. The report uses our Performance Profile template which is ideal for presenting data of this kind - nationally consistent ranks of multiple domains related to deprivation. The bars of the bullet graph (top right) illustrate how varied the cross-domain profile of deprivation can be at a neighbourhood scale. The background grey bars indicate how areas rank nationally in terms of fifths (quintiles) with bars overlapping the darkest grey sections being classed in the 20% most deprived of all areas nationally.

Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) Tool - South West Public Health Observatory (SWPHO)

The Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) tool aims to help primary care trusts and local authorities jointly identify their areas of need. The Area Profile Template was chosen as there are a large number of indicators to be shown, and trend data is not widely available. In addition, the ability to compare neighbouring areas and select statistically similar areas using the filter option are very useful. Since its launch the JSNA tool has become one of the most viewed pages on the South West Public Health Observatory (SWPHO) website.
