“Urbanflow would add a layer of personalized interactivity to common public signage, so that tourists could find a specific route on a local map, seek out the closest subway station, or simply find a cool place to hang out for a few hours.

It would do this by leveraging what Urbanscale calls the “ambient data” generated by the interaction of people and infrastructure, “such as energy consumption, traffic density, air quality and municipal works.” The idea is that you can see what’s going on, but also communicate back to the city with your own updates.”
