Launching the KomMonitor platform for Stadt Münster

The Ministry of Labor, Health and Social Affairs of North Rhine-Westphalia funds the city of Münster within the framework of the social funding program “Zusammen im Quartier” to strategically expand its social and neighborhood planning. An important goal of this project is to establish a data platform for the integration and analysis of small-scale data in order to analyze neighborhoods from a sociodemographic, health and supply perspective in a coherent and citywide comparison.

The City of Münster decided to establish the KomMonitor platform as a basis for decision making in order to support interdepartmental planning processes and to control offers and measures for strengthening neighborhoods. To this end, 52°North supported the city of Münster in deploying the complete KomMonitor stack in the technical infrastructure of the citeq, a municipal IT service provider. In addition to setting up KomMonitor, 52°North conducted several training sessions to guide staff from different departments in data analysis tasks for the KomMonitor platform.

All installation, technical support and workshops were provided in 2024.
