UK Local Government Association: LBS Saves Councils More than ?200m in 2009
The Local Government Association (LGA) has said that local councils saved more than £200m last year by using location-based technology to manage services. Those include services like reporting vandalism, paying for parking by phone, online search tools and the like. That number could reach £372m annually by 2014-15. The headline cites just iPhones and many examples are on that platform, but I have to believe there’s some desktop OSs and Android in there, too.
