Abstract

Innovation can be described as a good idea of solving a relevant problem implemented. Social Innovation
is an innovation that at the same time meets a social need and creates new relationships or social
collaborations. Social innovations of high impact and high scalability are generally aided by ICT (Information
and Communication Technology). In this context, this work presents the application of the Design Process for
the inception, design and implementation of a software product to support Social Innovation. To do so, it was
necessary to align the Design Process with a Social Innovation Model. The social innovation treated in this
work consists in fomenting a social network of rainfall (rainwater measurement) to support several areas
(agriculture, livestock, mobility, etc.) that use climatologic information in decision making. The developed
software product maintains the record and visualization of the pluviometric information shared by the people
and consists of the first implemented capacity of Time and Weather Collaboration Network.
