Description

In the context of the ZuReach Citizen Science project, the objective is to further enhance our collaboration with civil society and practical partners. We aim to establish an open digital platform for systematically collecting and maintaining spatial accessibility data for the city of Zurich, a capability that has been lacking until now. This open digital database serves a dual purpose: first, it facilitates local authorities, such as the municipality of Zurich, making essential information more readily accessible, and second, it empowers the public to participate more effectively in decision-making processes.

The platform shall be scaled to other cities, such as Winterthur within WinLab, and therefore showcase presentations will be developed.
