The Housing Tracking System at the Municipality of Arnhem

Clappform’s Housing Tracking System shows the Municipality of Arnhem the progress of making homes more sustainable. It brings data from different sources together in one central platform. This provides a complete and up-to-date view of insulation measures, energy consumption and subsidy flows, from municipal level down to individual home level.

The project

The system makes fragmented information accessible and clear. Policymakers use it to steer and monitor the energy transition. Through map layers and filters, the municipality sees where sustainability is on track and where extra effort is needed. This way, the Municipality of Arnhem reports to the municipal executive and council from one consistent dataset.

The challenge

There is a lot of data on homes and sustainability. This data is spread across different sources, systems and formats. As a result, there is no complete and up-to-date view of the progress of the energy transition. The challenge was to bring the fragmented data together in one clear system that can be used for policy and operations.

The solution

With the Housing Tracking System, the Municipality of Arnhem has one central place where all information on sustainability at home level comes together and stays up to date.

The municipality runs analyses on the data and presents the results in map visualisations. This shows where sustainability is on track. Opportunities and bottlenecks come into view at an early stage, policy measures are measurable and the municipality reports to the municipal executive and council from one consistent dataset.

Within the Housing Tracking System, the municipality can, among other things:

add supplementary data, such as target groups, registrations or local actions

filter by addresses, measures, subsidies or other characteristics

run area-based analyses with multiple map layers

identify where interventions are needed

export data to CSV, Excel, PDF or via an API

export GIS data to GeoJSON/OGC or shapefiles for use in external systems

create a direct link with the Clappform Property File

monitor contact moments, for example which letters or notifications have been sent

set up links with VvE programmes and/or Chamber of Commerce data

How Clappform helps municipalities with data challenges

Municipalities work on a wide range of themes: housing and liveability, sustainability, safety and the social domain. These themes touch on area development and call for current, reliable data.

When allocating resources, prioritising policy interventions and monitoring neighbourhood developments, current insights help municipalities make well-founded choices and adjust course.

Clappform offers municipalities one modular data platform that connects existing systems and data sources, checks the data on every load and runs thematic dashboards on top of it that match policy questions.
