Gi2MO Stats is a Utility type iPhone app. It allows to add a panel per each IMS and display:

  • name of the currently tracked instance
  • number of ideas, comments, contests and reviews
  • number of ideas, comments, contests and reviews added since last update period
  • information about last posted idea, comment and contest

The statistics about the amount of new ideas etc. can be customized via selecting the time frame: since last data update, last day, last week, last month, last year.

The application can monitor any amount of Idea Management instances as long as they can deliver required information serialized in RDF/XML. The source data has to be constructed following the guidelines of Gi2MO Ontology and its optimized version – Gi2MO IdeaStream Ontology. For details of the format please refer to the sample files; for general guidelines of using Gi2MO ontologies see the respectable specifications.
