New Online Interactive Map for OneChange Displays the Impact of Smart Environmental Actions

GATINEAU, Quebec / OTTAWA, Ontario (March 1, 2011) – DBx GEOMATICS ( www.dbxgeomatics.com) and OneChange ( www.onechange.org) today announced the launch of an interactive online map for OneChange, a not-for-profit foundation based in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. OneChange develops and delivers action-oriented energy conservation campaigns across North America. With volunteers and community leaders, through door-to-door deliveries and at community events, OneChange empowers individuals to make smart energy saving choices that help them save money and protect the environment.

OneChange has unveiled a new online mapping capability to showcase the impact of individual actions across North America. DBx GEOMATICS CartoVista was the software platform of choice used to develop the capabilities, providing a rich, customized user interface. The online map showcases various activities of OneChange, promotes local actions and events, and helps attract volunteers. The map is the externally facing component of the web-based management solution developed by DBx GEOMATICS for OneChange. The system facilitates overall campaign management and field operations requirements, allowing OneChange to manage, track and report on its multiple campaigns simultaneously. 

“By backing our old fashion approach of one-on-one conversations with a sophisticated data management, inventory and mapping system, we are able to manage, track and report on the millions of conversations and distribution of millions of free energy savings measures across North America effectively and efficiently,” says Stuart Hickox, founder and president of OneChange.

The interactive map allows users to see, through a dynamic panel, the number of conservation items delivered, the money saved and the CO2 equivalent of cars off the road by region, right down to street level. Selecting a specific location event on the map displays an information box that provides data about the event type, impact statistics, photos and links to OneChange social media postings (blog, Facebook and Twitter).
