Helsinki: Wachstumspol an der Ostsee. Perspektiven der Stadtentwicklung in einer nordeuropäischen Metropole

Contains fulltext : 141669.pdf (publisher's version ) (Open Access)Stadtentwicklung in Finnland findet unter den spezifischen Rahmenbedingungen eines innerhalb Europas sehr peripher gelegenen Landes statt, dessen Bevölkerung und Wirtschaftskraft sich in einem Prozess nachholender Urbanisierung im Süden konzentrieren. Insbesondere Helsinki, die einzige "echte" Großstadt (ca. 600.000 EW) und zugleich Kern des einzigen Agglomerationsraumes (1,2 Mio. EW) in Finnland, steht unter Wachstumsdruck. Diese Ausgangssituation führt zu verschiedenen Strategien der Stadtentwicklung, unter anderem zu einer (Wieder-)Entdeckung der Metropole Helsinki, zu der insgesamt vierzehn Gemeinden zählen, die in Zukunft stärker zusammenarbeiten sollen. Als erster Schritt wurde hierfür ein internationaler Visionswettbewerb veranstaltet, der für die bereits in Bau befindlichen und weiter geplanten Projekte einen gemeinsamen Rahmen setzen soll.6 p

FILLING THE FEEDBACK GAP OF PLACE-RELATED ‘EXTERNALITIES’ IN SMART CITIES: Empowering citizen-sensor-networks for participatory monitoring and planning

Contains fulltext : 156344.pdf (preprint version ) (Open Access)With this paper, we present the set-up of the pilot experiment in project “Smart Emission”, constructing an experimental citizen-sensor-network in the city of Nijmegen. This project, as part of research program ‘Maps 4 Society,’ is one of the currently running Smart City projects in the Netherlands. A number of social, technical and governmental innovations are put together in this project: (1) innovative sensing method: new, low-cost sensors are being designed and built in the project and tested in practice, using small sensing-modules that measure air quality indicators, amongst others NO2, CO2, ozone, temperature and noise load. (2) big data: the measured data forms a refined data-flow from sensing points at places where people live and work: thus forming a ‘big picture’ to build a real-time, in-depth understanding of the local distribution of urban air quality (3) empowering citizens by making visible the ‘externality’ of urban air quality and feeding this into a bottom-up planning process: the community in the target area get the co-decision-making control over where the sensors are placed, co-interpret the mapped feedback data, discuss and collectively explore possible options for improvement (supported by a Maptable instrument) to get a fair and ‘better’ distribution of air pollution in the city, balanced against other spatial qualities. The approach is based on the philosophy of ‘bottom up urban planning,’ from local places to city-government levels. With this pilot project we analyse how planning practice can benefit from seizing the opportunity of enabling technologic capacities and advancements of small and low-cost sensors, sensor data, Spatial Data Infrastructures and dispersed Geographic Information Flows. In our view, focusing these technological innovations on what economists call ‘externalities’, brings these externalities on the table and puts them in the spotlights for the eyes of citizens and city-planners. Being measured and counted transforms externalities as air quality from ‘unaccounted for, invisible side-effects’, treated separately from economic choices, into traceable ‘feedback’ about the state of our cities, and our own role in it. We aim to present the first intermediate empirical experiences while executing the pilot project at the Aesop 2015 conference, as the first few sensors are rolled out in the pilot area at the end of June 2015. At Aesop, we seek a dialogue about these types of new ways of planning practice and planning support (for instance using many low-cost sensor measurements as input), and using Open data for processing real-time analyses for sustainable cities in smart, affordable and democratic manners

Using classic methods in a networked manner: seeing volunteered spatial information in a bottom-up fashion

Contains fulltext : 135270.pdf (publisher's version ) (Open Access)Using new social media and ICT infrastructures for self-organization, more and more citizen networks and business sectors organize themselves voluntarily around sustainability themes. The paper traces and evaluates one emerging innovation in such bottom-up, networked form of sustainable governance: The use of sensor data by citizen communities. In such ‘bottom-up community initiatives’, the sensed data is published on Internet presenting real-time, web-based GIS maps about issues like noise, air quality or earthquakes. In the study, two particular cases are analyzed to trace the emergence and network operation of such a ‘networked’ geo-information tool in practice: (1) The Airplane Monitor Schiphol and (2) The Groningen earthquake monitor. The paper discusses how in these cases, citizen sensor networks are combining classical methodological approaches with enabling infrastructures and data sources. We find the makers creatively blend classic methods with newly available open data & information technologies. The tools are working as “social boundary objects,” as information hubs, which co-evolve with and reinforce the power of the citizen initiative as a network. The paper concludes with a discussion of two propositions: (1) Computer and Internet technology co-evolve with method advancement in planning, and (2) Citizen sensor networks work as embodied method for hypothesis falsification.Aesop, 09 juli 201422 p
