Kiosk display

How the key overviews can be used as a large-screen display — for example in the municipality foyer.

Overview

Some content should not stay behind a login but be visible in the public space. The kiosk display bundles a curated overview and exposes it as a large-screen mode for displays in the foyer or in the council chamber.

How it works

The kiosk display is a dedicated dashboard view optimised for screens without operator interaction. It rotates content in a fixed order, needs no mouse or keyboard and omits controls that are not relevant to the audience.

The selection of tiles follows the principle of differentiated transparency: the content shown is what carries value for the public — such as topic overviews and trends — and no internal evaluations that are reserved for the administration.

Common tasks

Start the kiosk mode

  1. Open the dashboard area in the administration view.
  2. Pick the "Kiosk mode" action.
  3. Switch the browser into full-screen mode.

Set up a suitable display

A permanently connected screen with an updatable browser is recommended. A dedicated browser login can be configured so the display automatically returns to kiosk mode after a restart.

Refresh the content

Should the content be adjusted, close and reopen the dashboard briefly. The kiosk mode then picks up the new selection.
