Nextbus
Nextbus is an app built on open government data. Through the system users can access all the information of the Metropolitan Transportation System. By activating the GPS of the cell phone, one is able to access stops, schedules and routes of the buses. This app stands out for having a complaint form, through which citizens can report all types of irregularities to the City Hall of Montevideo.
Institutional design
Formalization: is the innovation embedded in the constitution or legislation, in an administrative act, or not formalized at all?
Frequency: how often does the innovation take place: only once, sporadically, or is it permanent or regular?
Mode of Selection of Participants: is the innovation open to all participants, access is restricted to some kind of condition, or both methods apply?
Type of participants: those who participate are individual citizens, civil society organizations, private stakeholders or a combination of those?
Decisiveness: does the innovation takes binding, non-binding or no decision at all?
Co-governance: is there involvement of the government in the process or not?
