GENOR: A Generic Platform for Indicator Assessment in City Planning
More and more data have been generated in city planning in the past few years. Clear visualizations of these data are helpful to support information comprehension and retention for urban practitioners and policy-makers. Much research has been carried out on modeling and integrating data, and different tools have been developed for their visualization. However, such tools are generally application dependant and cannot be easily tailored to other problems. This work introduces GENOR, a generic platform for indicator assessment in city planning. It consists of a client-server application able to store and process any indicator and provide 2D and 3D map-based views for visualization. A game engine (Unity1) was used to create the client application, and the server consists of a REST API and a Database Management System (DBMS). Two cases studies were conducted to show the use of the platform: walkability and bus service availability assessment, both in the city of Ålesund, Norway. Obtained results demonstrate that the platform is flexible as it can be tailored to different applications seamlessly.
