Nuvole, our company, is building a platform to monitor public works in a medium-sized municipality. We will show why the local administration chose Drupal and how the modules Nuvole developed will be used in the project.

The OpenLayers Geocoder module will allow the Municipality personnel to input locations (of public works) just entering their address, allowing a better usability of the system; moreover, being able to autocomplete other CCK fields with the geocoder response values, it allows to run search, display and manipulate data according to their geographical information.

The Content Complete module makes it easy to check that nodes (public works) have been filled out in their entirety; having a possibility to check the completeness of nodes can improve the work of content checker in general; we will also present the Complete module and the idea of a complete API.

We will then explore future possibilities of this project, like turning it into a template and extending our modules.
