CityOpenSource

Cityopensource is a platform for co-creating augmented maps for collaborative digital storytelling. Storytelling Maps allow people to narrate their territory by involving the community in mappimg photos, audio, video and text. The tool is aimed at everyone but is particularly interesting for associations and nonprofits, museums, cultural institutions, administrations, research institutes, start-ups and SMEs. The platform enables the development of both complex mapping projects with custom mobile apps and simple projects that can be launched on the general Cityopensource application. The services offered can be selected and managed thanks to a management dashboard, and a mobile app is also available, from which people can map and access all the features chosen for them. The tool is fully modular and allows ample freedom to choose the type of content to place on the map and the most relevant services to create the best storytelling experience. The tool is suitable for urban regeneration projects, for the valorization of distributed resources (e.g., parks, wide area, villages) and for events spread across the territory (e.g., festivals). Among the services offered is the co-creation process that actively involves users to create an experience capable of generating value and building community. In order to get the tool it is necessary to contact the providers.
