The digital transformation of local administrations is no longer an option but a necessity. Municipalities face increasingly complex challenges: from managing basic services (water, street lighting, waste collection) to urban planning, environmental monitoring, and citizen services. In this context, having a tool that integrates all spatial information in a simple and accessible way is essential.

gvSIG Online has become a strategic platform for many municipalities aiming to move towards more efficient, transparent, and participatory urban management.

What does gvSIG Online bring to a municipality?

• Centralization of geographic information: unifies cadastre, urban planning, infrastructure, environmental, and mobility data in a single system.
• Comprehensive service management: facilitates the control of municipal inventories (streetlights, containers, green areas, water networks, sewage…) with an updated and georeferenced view.
• Data-driven decision making: the integration of AI allows natural language interaction, dashboards, and analytics that help municipal managers better plan resources and reduce costs.
• Transparency and citizen communication: public viewers enable sharing maps and relevant information, increasing citizen trust and improving the relationship between the municipality and its residents.
• Mobility and fieldwork: thanks to its integration with gvSIG Mapps, technical staff can collect and update information directly in the field, synchronizing it in real time with the platform.

Some highlighted use cases

• Urban planning: consultation of plans, permits, and management of land-related records.
• Environment: monitoring risk areas, managing urban trees, or tracking protected natural areas.
• Mobility and traffic: public transport routes, management of low-emission zones, or parking control.
• Heritage and tourism: dissemination of cultural routes, inventory of heritage assets, or visitor information.

A step towards the smart municipality

Adopting gvSIG Online means moving towards the concept of a “digital municipality”, where information flows efficiently across departments, internal processes are optimized, and citizens are offered simpler and more transparent access to services.

With solutions based on free and interoperable software, municipalities not only reduce costs but also ensure technological sovereignty, avoiding dependency on closed vendors and fostering local innovation, collaboration, and reuse.
