This is the page that represents the URL of the Android application that I have submitted to INCA Award (Innovative and Creative Application Award) http://www.inca-award.eu/ . I have participated with the Android application C.O.P. - Citizens on Patrol.
Please remember that this is an Android application (mobile application). See below on how to install this application on your Android phone.
The current edition focuses on the ‘inclusive society’ in the broadest sense: applications that contribute to overcoming exclusion, and improving economic performance, employment opportunities, quality of life, social participation and cohesion. This application’s category falls under social participation
Description
C.O.P. - Citizens on Patrol lets you take part in your local community and look after your city. It´s our individual responsibility to keep our home and neighbourhood clean. This application allows citizens to report several problems to your local City Hall such as damaged roads, dumped garbage, blocked drains or flooding derived from it, non-functioning street lighs, abandoned cars and graffiti amongst others. You can also check on situations that were reported by fellow citizens. We hope to make our world a better place to live in!
Since this is an application prototype to INCA award project, your report won´t be sent to your local City Hall. When C.O.P. is fully functional and we have a partnership with several City Halls, your report will be forward to the responsible people.
With C.O.P. you can have several options:
* You can report abnormal situations by pin pointing them on the map.
* You can just send a message to your City Hall.
* Is your report been looked at? What are others reporting?
* City Hall's stats
* More information about your local City Hall (website)

Perhaps you own a tablet computer or one of those smart phones with the bigger screen. In that case you know that there are millions of apps out there now. By having more mobile devices in the hands of our citizenry we are changing how our society operates.

Most of the scholars are not proficient to coordinate their allotment as the major origin is that they worry the deduction of the allotment that they try to do. A scholar will not really do well in his learned vocation if http://www.do-my-homework-service.com she or he doesn't have any correct designs to entire assignment.
