Hackathon OEFA 2019
The Hackathon OEFA 2019 is an initiative of the Ministry of Environment of Peru, in collaboration with private companies and the German agency for international cooperation (GIZ). The hackathon aims to encourage citizens to develop innovative solutions using open data from the Environmental Evaluation and Oversight Agency (OEFA) and other publicly available information to strengthen transparency and improve environmental oversight activities. Among the solutions designed are, for example, a software that generates real-time automated reports of environmental complaints extracted from social media, another for digitization of OEFA documents, and an app that allows OEFA workers to file reports without needing to rely on any type of network (mobile, internet, radio, etc.) and uses artificial intelligence to identify key words in these documents and conduct statistical analysis.
