Introducing Auvergne Numérique
Very High Speed Broadband across an entire territory
Providing Very High Speed Broadband on a silver platter to all residents of Allier, Cantal, Puy-De-Dôme, and Haute-Loire is no small feat. Yet, this is the very challenge being met by the Auvergne Numérique Public Authority with the support of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Region. We were immediately impressed by the technological means deployed to lay fiber across our vast territories and complement this network with VDSL relays and satellite kits.
Everything is being done so that the most remote rural areas also benefit from an ultra-fast internet connection. Enough to give us ideas for remote work in the green from the Auvergne countryside ! We are proud to have contributed at our level to this project, which makes our beautiful region a great place to live and work.
The challenge
The Auvergne Numérique Regional Public Authority turned to our agency for the redesign of its site with the aim of facilitating access to information and:
- Improving the user experience through a more intuitive process
- Offering a pleasant and dynamic visual to the pages to enhance the content
- Optimizing the site for mobile use
By enriching the maps with geolocation features and integrating them into clear and modern pages, we met this challenge and played our part.
The Strong Axes of the Solution
While the deployment of Very High Speed Broadband in Auvergne seemed like a technological feat to us, this should not translate to the user. No obstacle course to find information or check the eligibility of their home. Our priority was therefore UX with a particular focus on the mobile use of the solution.
In parallel, our graphic designers focused on the visuals of this site and the necessary illustrations to make it attractive.
For development, the team implemented the WordPress CMS. This allowed us to integrate an interactive map system to facilitate the definition of a connection point and adapt it to mobiles thanks to a particularly polished responsive design. We then only needed to configure geolocation to further simplify the use of the site from a smartphone.
