Streamlining GIS Workflow for Better Stakeholder Engagement

I recently wrapped up a GIS project focusing on urban planning, and it prompted me to think about how we can improve workflow for better stakeholder communication… I found that using ArcGIS Online facilitated real-time feedback, which significantly enhanced collaboration. Has anyone else explored tools or strategies to keep stakeholders more engaged throughout the project lifecycle?

I totally get what you mean about ArcGIS Online! I’ve used it for real-time updates too; it really helps with feedback loops. Have you tried incorporating surveys or polls for deeper stakeholder insights?

I’ve found that using interactive dashboards really boosts stakeholder engagement by allowing them to visualize data trends in real time. > tried incorporating surveys or polls for deeper stakeholder — totally agree, those can really help gather insights during key phases. Have you experimented with any specific dashboard tools?
