The Next Mile A Vision For Rural Communities
Sustainability Using Real-Time Data
A series of Citizen-Based Initiatives that
address critical infrastructure gaps for
  • Governance
  • Business
  • Non-Profit Organizations
  • Citizens

thru access to utilization of real-time data.

Tech Ready PHASE I
  • Connect the six county courthouses of the
    San Luis Valley, to create a system of shared
    real-time data sets that will be used for
    regional planning and statewide information
    benefiting economic and community self
    development.

The Next Mile Tech Ready Communities
  • To create a statewide initiative from a local
    project, by connecting the six county courthouses
    of the San Luis Valley, to create a system of
    shared real-time data sets that will be used
    for regional planning and statewide information
    benefiting economic and community self
    development.
  • To demonstrate how rural communities can take
    advantage of broadband access by connecting
    real-time programs. Programs that have been
    designed and implemented in the San Luis Valley
    as early as 1994, like E911 Authority Board and
    GIS/GPS Authority Board.

Real Time Data Sets
  • Examples of data sets include Plat maps, housing
    starts, fees, permits sales.
  • Real-Time data sets available to key public
    entities including government, business,
    non-profit organizations citizen based
    initiatives from community, county, Valley,
    state, and national levels.
  • Key public entities include County
    Commissioners, clerks, assessors, sheriffs and
    planners.
  • Cohesive network of critical information.
  • Shared responsibilities benefits between State
    and Region for planning demographics for more
    efficient day to day operations for all of
    Colorado.
  • Creates advantage for business development to all
    of Colorado.
  • Critical beneficial for emergency preparedness
    and homeland defense.

Data As Infrastructure
  • Project Recommendations
  • Establish Data Standards Statewide/National/Inte
    rnational
  • Establish a Base System
  • Start a Statewide Inventory/Survey
  • Select a Method of Establishing State Standards
  • Develop Software for Governance
  • Project Potentials
  • Standardization of method of recording, storing,
    sharing data
  • Model for 49 other States to possibly replicate
    research what other single systems may be
    currently available.
  • All 64 countys gain the staff expertise and
    history of the other 63 for data documentation,
    storage, usage, legal research, etc
  • A statewide Reverse 911 will be put in place,
    with shared real-time data set so a Colorado
    statewide Reverse 911 system becomes a benefit
    gained from sharing data infrastructure.

The Big Picture
  • Real-Time information systems developed by
    cooperative partnerships that create unlimited
    economic/community development opportunities for
    all of Colorado.

Conclusion
  1. Establish Data Standards Statewide/National/Inte
    rnational
  2. Establish A Base System
  3. Start a statewide inventory/survey of all
    elected officials on current use of
    software/hardware and standards for data
    recording, storage and usage.
  4. Select a method of establishing state standards
    by committee or mandate
