B.Green project is looking to develop new green infrastructure solutions with new digital tools, while expanding participatory elements in urban planning. The Open Call “Green Urban Mapping” seeks agile pilots for experimentation in the Sompasaari pilot site in the Kalasatama urban lab area in Helsinki. The piloting costs will be covered up to 10.000€ (VAT 0%) for the two best solutions. In case there are no two clear pilot solutions suggested fulfilling the minimum requirements, Forum Virium Helsinki reserves the right to divide the costs differently or not choose any of the pilots. The maximum total cost of all agile pilots is 20.000€ (VAT 0%). The target of this open call are pilot projects related to mapping plant life data with digital tools and participatory elements. The piloting challenge aims to take a step towards collecting comprehensive natural environment data to support the development of more ecologically sustainable urban planning at the City of Helsinki. The goal of the project is to: - find ways for residents to collect and keep on collecting plant life data of their living environments, and - transform the data into a form that supports the decision-making of urban planners and deepens the city’s understanding of the state and development of urban vegetation. The solutions should: - engage citizens in collecting plant life data of their living environment - provide city planners information about the ecological state of the urban environment - provide data about the location and volume of plant life as well as the species present - recognize a relevant scale of information, as modeling distinctions between plant life individuals and groups is difficult. Technological guidelines: - We are looking for new and exciting solutions which do not need to be commercially ready. - The selected solutions should utilize off the shelf technologies. - The collected data needs to be presented in a format commonly compatible with existing CAD, BIM, or GIS-based softwares. - We wish to see suggestions from the fields of image analysis, machine learning, drone mapping, and augmented reality solutions. Other technology and low-tech fields are also welcome. The Green Urban Mapping pilot project is organized by Forum Virium Helsinki as part of the Interreg Central Baltic funded B.Green project.
