The Geofutures Knowledge Garden
The Knowledge Garden is an online insight sharing tool which visualises useful data via easy-to-use maps.
It’s designed to help groups of participants reach intelligent decisions rapidly and efficiently, based on a shared understanding of consistent, accurate data.
The Knowledge Garden enables organisations to streamline their data management, gather an evidence base, shape policy and strategy, prepare reports and monitor performance, using the minimum of time and resources.
Who needs a Knowledge Garden?
Any organisation which:
- Needs to make decisions based on what’s happening on the ground – even at fine scales
- Needs a sound evidence base for shaping policy or commercial strategy
- Needs a cost-effective source of economic, social and environmental data, kept updated, pre-processed and instantly available
- Is managing internal data across multiple databases, duplicating effort or confusing findings
- Wants to dedicate scarce resources to strategy and implementation, not data management
- Doesn’t want to invest in specialist software or training
- Doesn’t want to invest in one-off consultancy projects or research, but to build capability in-house
- Wants to engage every colleague in accountable, joint interpretation and insight seeking
- Wants to present evidence and interpretation quickly, clearly and attractively, whether internally or to external contacts.
