Local intelligence

LewesLive

A public local-information service combining events, directory, place, travel and community discovery around Lewes.

Purpose

What it is trying to create.

Demonstrate how reusable local-data infrastructure can become a useful, human-centred public guide rather than a raw data directory.

Intended outcomes

What success looks like.

  • Local events and place discovery in a single public experience.
  • A destination for reusable event and directory outputs.
  • Local context and editorial presentation around structured data.
  • A practical test-bed for SCC Nexus local-intelligence infrastructure.

Provenance · integrity · verification · validity

Full evidence record →
P

Provenance

Local event and directory records are intended to retain source links/context through the upstream data engines before being presented as public listings.

I

Integrity

The public destination is separated from the harvesting/review engines. Upstream quality gates can withhold material that is incomplete, blocked, duplicated or not publication-safe.

V

Verification

LewesLive functions as the public deployment target for validated local-events/directory outputs rather than exposing raw discovery records directly.

V

Validity

Valid as a local discovery and information service. Listings are not an authoritative statutory register and may require source confirmation for time-critical decisions.

Evidence record: Public platform reviewed August 2026

Public boundary

Transparency without exposing operational secrets.

Public pages describe purpose, evidence principles and intended outputs. Credentials, private repository links, source-specific collection tactics, restricted implementation details, anti-abuse controls and other security-sensitive material are deliberately excluded.
