How Participatory GIS Works

1️⃣ πŸ“

Pinpoint a Location

Tap anywhere on the interactive campus map where you study, commute, or relax. Use your approximate location or click any building courtyard.

2️⃣ πŸ’¬

Express Your Perception

Choose from 5 validated mood states (Relaxed to Very Stressful) and tag key physical drivers like tree canopy, noise levels, lighting, or crowding.

3️⃣ πŸ“Š

Drive Evidence-Based Design

Your input instantly aggregates into spatial heatmaps, restorative space indices, and GIS exports utilized for campus infrastructure planning.

Core Ethical Principle: Map the Place, Not the Person

This research platform is strictly anonymous. We deliberately do not ask for your name, student number, email, or device identifiers. Individual perceptions are aggregated using privacy-preserving spatial thresholds (minimum 5 samples per grid).
