Award

The Taiwan Cloud Internet of Things Industry Association held the 2017 "Cloud Internet of Things Innovation Award" event. The list of winners was released today. The Taitung County Government stood out from the fierce competition with its "Cloud Data Collection Application Platform" and won the "Government Service Group Annual Outstanding Application Award"!

The annual "Cloud Internet of Things Innovation Award" can be called the Oscars of the domestic cloud industry. There are many projects and fierce competition in each session. This year’s awards ceremony was held at Sheraton Grand Taipei Hotel. The annual outstanding application awards of the "Enterprise Innovation Group" and "Government Service Group" were presented. The awards were presented by Vice President Chen Jianren. Among them, the "Government Service Group" attracted a total of 23 participants this year, and the competition was fierce. Since the award was added to the "Government Service Group" in 2015, the Taitung County Government is the first local government agency that is not a municipality to receive this honor.

Yu Mingxun, director of the International Development and Planning Division of the Taitung County Government, said that the "cloud data collection application platform" integrates county government resources to build and share. GIS is used for decision-making assistance to the county government, and Open API and multiple authorization feedback mechanisms are used to provide creators to develop innovative applications. Taitung has used digital technology to break through its difficulties and become an "international, smart, happy city."

In order to enhance the application value of data, the Taitung County Government effectively integrates various resources and uses information technology to shorten the digital gap between urban and rural areas. Since 2014, it has established a data application platform-Taitung County Socio-Economic Database, and integrated with the county government. In addition to support the decision-maker in the government, the data in each bureau is also open to the public for viewing and browsing on specific topics. In order to strengthen the scope of data application and the convenience and security of access, the county government planned to build a TTCloud Taitung big data platform in 2016, which can provide the aggregated data to authorized personnel inside and outside the government to use it in API mode, including Text data, map locations, videos, and pictures can all be directly accessed using APIs, and relevant data of external application services can also be fed back to Taitung Big Data through APIs. Combining public and private sectors, makers and the people, enrich the content of the data and create Taitung cloud application ecosystem.
