Dealing with the massive crush of data and information that can be produced by a modern city is a daunting task. To help handle this problem, the city of Albuquerque recently launched a program to combine the strengths of their Cognos business intelligence system, with the easy usability and broad reach of their Google enterprise search solutions.

I recently had the chance to speak with two people who have worked closely on this project; Brian Osterloh, applications development manager for the city of Albuquerque, and Chris Framel, the Technical Program Manager II of the Albuquerque/Bernalillo County Water Utility Authority.
