Abstract

New technologies are becoming faster procedures for local governments, authorities, banking, etc. Such as, requesting legal and authorization documents through the Website, and booking sports facilities. Till now, this type of actions is done from the legal organization side, to resolve and help users, to perform their actions in a smooth way. In this paper, we present a system to help these organizations, an especially the governments authorities. Thus, our daily experience shows us that daily, citizens encounter many obstacles, barriers, hindrances, hurdles, and other impediments, that must be resolved. Our system resolve the question, How to report on all this in a simple and fast way? It is intended to solve the time problem with the massive incorporation of mobile devices with GPS capabilities, camera and Internet access. And by this, we foster and create an increasingly active citizenship.
