http://www.open311.org/ works fine on my browser
there’s an open311 advisory committee chaired by phil that meets monthly
still strong demand for open311, but primarily coming from the larger cities
open311 api regularly promoted and consumed at city hackathons
we’ve seen an increase in internal open 311 api use — city web designers and
departmental developers find it an easier way to create more complicated
reports, or to display filtered requests on a map
we’re currently working on a connector that will pull pothole reports from a
live Waze (https://www.waze.com/) feed and submit it to an open 311 endpoint,
which will be released as open source when completed.
