Welcome to W.I.S.D.O.M.
Wigan's Information System of Dynamic Online Maps (W.I.S.D.O.M.) provides easy access to statistics at a variety of spatial levels including Output Area, Lower Super Output Area, Ward, Police Beat, Township and North West Local Authority Districts. The statistics cover a range of themes including deprivation, demographics, health and social care, education and skills, housing, economic activity, crime and disorder, leisure and culture and the environment.
W.I.S.D.O.M. is being developed by core partners operating under the Wigan Borough Partnership umbrella including: Wigan Council , Ashton Leigh and Wigan Primary Care Trust , Wigan and Leigh Housing and Wigan Leisure and Culture Trust. You can learn more about the history of W.I.S.D.O.M. by watching this webinar.The following modules are available:
1. Explorer: Allows you to find out what reports and data are available on the system. You can search by keyword and retrieve details of all data and reports that are currently available. You can also download whole datasets easily.
2. Reports: Allows you to quickly produce a summary area profile report for an area of interest. Reports are built by your Administrator and summarise key characteristics of areas in text, tables and charts.
3. Advanced Reports: Offers you more flexibility than Reports to select one or more areas and the ability to customise the content of your profile report.
4. Data Views: Allows you to explore and investigate key pre-defined sets of data using an exciting combination of interactive maps and charts. You can also create custom tables for the same collections of indicators and download those of interest.
5. Advanced Data Views: Allows you to create custom tables comprising any indicators held in the system. You can then export the data or create custom maps and charts which you can use in your own presentations and reports.
To be able to view the interative maps which are available within 4. Data Views and 5. Advanced Data Views, you may need to install (or ask your I.T. helpdesk to install) the free Adobe Flash Player 'plug-in' which is downloadable from the Adobe web site.
