Information Technology Indicators Project

What does a technology healthy community look like?

The Information Technology Indicators Project is one of a number of Citizens Technology Literacy and Access projects developed by the City of Seattle Department of Information Technology and the City’s Citizens Telecommunications and Technology Advisory Board (CTTAB).  This project is intended to measure the impact of information technology on the health and vitality of the Seattle region. 

Indicators Data Collection

The first set of data for the indicators is in the process of being collected.  Some of the data currently available includes: 

Seattle Technology Residential Survey: The first-ever Seattle survey looking at residents' technology access, literacy, and attitudes.

Neighborhoods and Technology: The results of a survey of community and neighborhood group leaders to learn about their use of information technology in community work.

Non-Profits and Technology: A collaborative survey of the Department of Information Technology, the Human Services Department, United Way, and King County Community Services Division looking at information technology access and needs within the non-profit community.

Phase I: Indicator Development
See the results of the indicator development process. Completed in May of 2000, this set of indicators represents a new model for looking at the impact - both positive and negative - that technology is having on our region.

This project is part of the City of Seattle Citizens Technology Literacy and Access initiative in cooperation with the volunteer Citizens Telecommunications and Technology Advisory Board (CTTAB) and Sustainable Seattle. Additional assistance for the forum is being provided by Progress Project of the Evans School of Public Affairs and Seattle Community Network.
