INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY FOR REAL-TIME MONITORING AND VISUALIZATION OF LOAD IN URBAN PUBLIC OPEN SPACES BASED ON SPATIAL AND STATISTICAL DATA ANALYSES OF HUMAN BEHAVIOUR

Abstract

The article deals with the information technology development for monitoring and visualization of the load of urban environment public open spaces and human behaviour. The problem of urban public open space load became actual both in everyday life and in the conditions of pandemics. The offered information technology includes several dynamic or real-time data acquisition modules, data server with data processing, clustering and simulation functions and mobile application for end users on their mobile devices. A mobile application warns on public open space load at a certain level of density, recommends residents to visit territory in another times or offer less congested areas or other nearby public open spaces. The solution will also be able to facilitate the events by controlling and gradually changing the flow of visitors. Mobile application will offer users statistical data analysed from the STATBOX registrations modules placed in the parks. This data includes information on activities of the visitors, the number of the visitors in them in real time, visitors with animals, possibilities of recreation at the territory, park load as well as distance to the park and transportation possibilities. The messaging section will provide the possibility to users to send information about pleasant/unpleasant situations as well an interactive social survey. In addition to the information technology, methodology and recommendations for urban public open space visitor load assessment is being developed.
