WalkOn is an app that helps the city officials to crowdsource sidewalk data. The user can record their walkdata by walking on the sidewalk and upload the data. For every data contributed by the user, the user earns points. For testing, we have the point schemes configured for College Station, Tx.
The more you walk, the more you earn. Benefit your city and other residents by reporting issues that need to be addressed! You will earn points that can be redeemed for T-shirts, gift cards, and other things that you can use in your office or in your city.
