VIGÍA is an app to visualize, generate, report and share corruptive acts with a smartphone, designed to reduce the corruption in big cities, focused in transit and police departments.

VIGÍA pretends to create an informational network that locates the users on the map of their city and allows them to visualize reports from other users. These reports will conform a database that helps citizens to visualize acts of police or transit corruption, avoid them and/or share them in their social network. 

These data can be an instrument of coercion, so that authorities and institutions related to security can act and use the information provided by VIGÍA to point the levels of corruption in the entity. Users of the app can generate reports (anonymously) from their smartphones, use hashtags to facilitate the search by other users, add a video as evidence, and share the same report on social networks in real time as well as access past reports.
