Engage the public in projects in ways they can instantly understand and provide feedback on
The public wants a voice in urban infrastructure projects. And project teams need to hear them to ensure fit-for-purpose design. With UrbanWebMap, you get engineering maps and other visuals built for meaningful public engagement.
The app translates technical maps into inclusive, accessible content that anyone can understand at a time and place that’s convenient for them. It intuitively guides users through content, creating a much-needed bridge between the design office, clients and the public.
Features
Built for inclusive engineering
UrbanWebMap makes engineering inclusive with maps and other visuals that anyone can understand and input on, at a time and place that’s convenient for them. Features include:
- Display of dynamic multimedia and text
- Sharing of project information and updates
- Guided instruction for users in accessible language
