Participatory Pavement Mapping
The Participatory Pavement Mapping project was initiated in the city of La Plata in 2016, within the framework of the "Five-Year Plan for the Renovation and Recovery of Urban Pavements." To this end, the collaboration of citizens was called for, enabling a mechanism for raising complaints with photographs of the state of the pavement, including a description of the degree and severity of cracks and potholes.
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?
