Background and objectives of activities
Disseminate a multi-function database that allows cross-searching and browsing by collecting and incorporating information on codes and regulations that cannot be found without visiting each municipality's website.
Summary of Activities
The database will be disseminated for use in professional work, such as drafting ordinances and regulations and other legal matters, and for securing materials from other municipalities for policy review work, by collecting the rules and regulations of municipalities nationwide and enabling cross-search and browsing.
Expected Benefits
By providing access to a cross-sectional search method for ordinances that form the basis of a city, this system is expected to improve the efficiency and quality of each municipality's operations, and at the same time, it is expected to be used in private sector operations and in school education.
