Urban infoscape for sustainable lifestyle of smart green city

Abstract

This research proposes the framework of urban infoscape that can affect the user lifestyle through the nudge effect rather than relying on suppliers-centered data visualization. To verify how the lifestyle changes by using urban infoscape, we choose a place vulnerable to the misuse by users within the university campus as a reduced version of urban public space. We investigate various methodologies of information visualization with a small-scale experiment. In addition, we will testify how much the framework of urban infoscape can affect sustainable behavior. Positive results will be applied to the public urban sculpture planning and individual assistant system for sustainable lifestyle. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.
