Abstract: This paper presents a conceptual framework for developing an online public participation geographic information system (PPGIS) to support community engagement in collaborative planning with stakeholders. Its basic characteristics include a lightweight, open internet standard data format GeoJSON (JavaScript Object Notation for geographical features), asynchronous communication between web browser and server, and open source server scripts using PHP and Python. This readily adaptable framework provides viewers with real-time processing and display of geo-comments, and preliminary descriptive statistics of participating social groups based on location and commentary themes. Visualizations are in the form pie charts and word clouds, which are understandable for a wide variety of non-expert GIS and/or urban planning users. This framework can also handle concurrent and multiple user requests. The advantage of this PPGIS web-based mapping application is that any web server can implement the workflow, and its real-time feedback feature supports the monitoring of social groups’ participation.

GI_Forum publishes high quality original research across the transdisciplinary field of Geographic Information Science (GIScience). The journal provides a platform for dialogue among GI-Scientists and educators, technologists and critical thinkers in an ongoing effort to advance the field and ultimately contribute to the creation of an informed GISociety. Submissions concentrate on innovation in education, science, methodology and technologies in the spatial domain and their role towards a more just, ethical and sustainable science and society. GI_Forum implements the policy of open access publication after a double-blind peer review process through a highly international team of seasoned scientists for quality assurance. Special emphasis is put on actively supporting young scientists through formative reviews of their submissions. Only English language contributions are published.
