The IMA’s dashboard, offering the public access to real-time statistics

The Indianapolis Museum of Art today announced that it has unveiled a newly designed web site at www.imamuseum.org. The site is one of the most progressive museum web sites in its use of the next generation of web technology enabling visitors to interact and to share information online. In conjunction with the launch of the new site, the IMA also has created a dashboard of data, offering the public access to real-time statistics such as fiscal performance, number of new works on view in the permanent collection, energy consumption and numerous other metrics of institutional performance. 

Moreover, the museum invites visitors to participate in viewing videos on YouTube contributing to the museum’s MySpace page and checking out some of the images in their flickr photopool. You can also access the collection through tags contributed by other IMA visitors
