Abstract: The number of easy-to-use artefacts for environmental data collection is rising. Various scientific projects and private initiatives are addressing how to measure urban data in dense sensor networks by applying devices to public infrastructure or by using citizens. The latter is often done to raise both public awareness and that of administrations and governments. Best practices that use or collect environmental parameters and measurements related to the quality of public spaces (e.g., noise, heat, particulate matter) are central. This work presents data points, analysis parameters and a structured overview of best practices in this field. The results show applications of best practices, ranging from permanently mounted sensors mainly driven by municipalities, to participatory urbanism approaches, where users actively collect environmental data. Additionally, the example of the City of Vienna gives an administrative perspective on incorporating co-creation approaches. Supporting factors for cooperation with private initiatives operating participatory sensing projects are shown; challenges arise when urban participation meets administrative structures. Keywords: environmental data collection, participatory urbanism, sustainability, dense sensor networks, quality of public space Published Online: 2023/12/18 06:13:48 Object Identifier: 0xc1aa5576 0x003eafec Rights:https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/4.0/ “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. “GI_Forum” implements the policy of open access publication (CC-BY-ND-License) after a double-blind peer review process through a highly international team of established scientists for quality assurance. Special emphasis is put on actively supporting young scientists through formative reviews of their submissions.
