Online monitoring of construction of biogas digesters (by SNV)

SNV is using a nice online overview about the number of new biogas digesters per african country and month. Please have a look at:

Do you know any similar example for making project progress public on monthly basis? please share with on this page

Additions to above article:

1.) If a project website exists, I would guess that in most cases a Content-Management-System (CMS) is used. Simply publishing images should be as easy as with google-sites then.

However, there are better ways to publish and visualize data online using google-services. Have a look at: http://www.google.com/fusiontables/public/tour/index.html

Depending on your technical infrastructure, report creating and publishing can be completely automated with some configuration and scripting.

2.)Some more information and a video about fusiontables can be found here:
