TURBOARD brings population, services, urban projects and citizen requests into one governed model and puts them on the map, so municipal managers plan with current data rather than last year’s reports.

A walkthrough of municipal dashboards
See how a municipality explores population, services and urban projects in TURBOARD: neighbourhood-level demographics, GIS-S map layers and dashboards that drill from the whole city down to a single street.
The challenge
A city’s data is split between departments that rarely meet.
Population records, building permits, road works, parks, parking, social services and citizen complaints are each managed by a different department, in a different system. When the council asks where the next park or car park should go, someone has to combine spreadsheets by hand — and the answer rarely shows the neighbourhood-level picture that the decision actually needs.
TURBOARD connects these sources into one governed model and places every indicator on the map with GIS-S. Demographics, infrastructure, project costs and citizen requests can be filtered by district and neighbourhood on the same screen. Residents’ surveys collected with FOR-S flow straight into the same dashboards, and row-level permissions give each department exactly the data it is responsible for.

What you can do
Municipal analyses on one map-ready model
Parks and public space
Child and youth population compared with the parks and recreational areas available to them, neighbourhood by neighbourhood.
Parking and mobility
Vehicle ownership set against parking capacity in each area, so infrastructure investment goes where demand is highest.
Urban renewal projects
Road refurbishments and building works on GIS-S maps, with cost, schedule and completion drillable to each project.
Citizen requests
Complaints and service requests mapped by location and category, showing where problems cluster and how quickly they are resolved.
Resident surveys
Satisfaction surveys designed and distributed with FOR-S, with results arriving in dashboards as soon as responses come in.
Challenges & solutions
Where municipal data gets stuck — and how TURBOARD helps
?Departmental silos
Planning, infrastructure, social services and finance each keep their own data, so city-wide questions take weeks.
✓One municipal model
All departmental sources feed one governed model, with each department seeing what it is authorised to see.
?No neighbourhood view
Reports show city totals, while decisions about parks, roads and services are made street by street.
✓GIS-S maps
Every indicator can be placed on the map and filtered down to district, neighbourhood and street.
?Residents’ voice arrives late
Paper or one-off online surveys are often analysed months after collection.
✓FOR-S to dashboard
Survey responses flow directly into dashboards, next to the operational data they relate to.
?Project overruns found late
Cost and schedule slippage on urban projects surfaces only at the end of a phase.
✓Projects tracked continuously
Project dashboards refresh with the source data, and conditional formatting marks deviations from budget and plan.
JAS · Just Ask Simply
Ask about any neighbourhood in plain language
JAS, the AI assistant built into TURBOARD, answers from the same governed model your municipal dashboards use. Ask a question and she finds the relevant data, builds the chart or map and explains what it shows. With JAS Explain and personas, the same dashboard can be summarised for the mayor or explained in operational detail for a department head.
