Urban Listening Tool
To provide a robust foundation for inclusive, data-driven decision-making, the CULTIGEN project will develop an Urban Listening Tool (ULT) to collect a wide range of data from residents and visitors, integrating qualitative insights and behavioural patterns.
The ULT will enable urban planners and authorities to attune themselves to the myriad of urban values in circulation. ULT will be a digital environment centered around a photo-voice app that allows urban actors to communicate their urban experiences and concerns in the format of images and react to the images of other participants.
Working as a small and local social medium, potentially integrating also gamification elements, the ULT will allow the users to measure and visualise their own urban gaze in relation to others. ULT will be designed such that it makes it possible to collect data on people’s urban experiences in a secure environment thereby also making it possible to use state-of-the-art AI techniques to produce novel analytical segmentations of urban interest groups.
