Also known as "new technologies", information and communication technologies relate to the resources needed to process information and communicate using networks. Every sector is affected by these technologies and the possibilities are endless.
In town councils, these technologies are divided up into three main headings:
the installation of networks and broadband – optical networks, relations with operators
services to citizens – e-administration, web sites, on-line formalities, interactive map
users and user guidance and assistance – digital forums for the public, campaigns in the schools and associations and facilities for companies.
For many years now Vannes council has been addressing all these issues and its commitment is recognised throughout France(Ville Internet @@@@).
This heading sets out the important initiatives that have been undertaken in this ever-changing sector.

Pierre Maréchal, the councillor responsible for Information, Communicationand Information Technologies, is pleased to present the Vannes' new Internet site.
This new communication tool, the fruit of the efforts of every department in Vannes town council, offers:
- new features updated with information from our well-informed sources
- an on-line electronic counter for your administrative tasks
- an interactive town plan and bird's eye views
- a more intuitive navigation system (now with a search engine)
- an attractive layout and design.
Internauts can now personalise their gateway to gain direct access to the subjects that interest them most.
An interactive town plan is at your disposal. The information has been extracted from the council's geographic information system and therefore its reliability is guaranteed.
The system allows you to switch from the plan to the bird's eye views and back. The user positions himself on a specific address. Permanent links are in place between the content of the site and the plan.
