In the third phase of the cooperation with LIG, the focus was on testing digital tools for decision support in urban and land development: the AGORA Toolbox (Analytics for Ground Property and Real Estate Assessment) is a WebGIS prototype developed within the project for criteria-based land and location allocation in complex development processes. The project used the tool to test innovative technical approaches that address practical needs identified in consultation with experts.
The development of methods for using urban data to support decision-making was also continued: this includes, for example, the explorative processing of geodata to estimate urban redensification potential. Natural language processing methods enable the spatial mapping of location-relevant events from governmental, media or socio-cultural sources. The spread of large language models opens up new possibilities for the analysis of decision-relevant documents, which were tested and tried out by the project partners.

In the context of urban air mobility, U-Space does not describe a specific area of airspace but rather is a framework for integrating drones into existing aviation, transportation, and environmental infrastructure. LUV is about the legal framework and acceptance strategy for Unmanned Airspace, particularly developing the concept of "U-Space" for access to lower airspace.
The official goal of the LUV project has been defined as “Solutions and recommendations for the national implementation of the U-Space Regulation”, but the part that DCS is working on is developing a strategy for integrating U-Space into the existing urban mobility setting, focusing on socio-political aspects. We used 澳门现金网_澳门赌博现金网-官网 as a case study to design a mechanism for stakeholders' participation and social acceptance of U-Space.
The project is funded by the Federal Ministry of Digital and Transport (BMDV) and runs from 01.01.2022 to 31.03.2023.

Reshaping urban space and governance in Berlin
Grassroots Digital Urbanism: Reshaping urban space and governance in Berlin
At a time when the state-corporation version of the smart city seems to be far from a panacea for cities, there is a need to think beyond critiques of techno-capitalist developments and to imagine alternatives.
Among the recent urban experimental collectives and organisations, there is an increasingly strong aspiration to imagine new digital urbanism possibilities representing those who refuse to be excluded from the 'backend' of smart cities projects and avoid being kept 'dumb'.
AIM
The contribution of this research to provide insight on how these collectives are politically, spatially and performatively reappropriating the technological glitches in the city and enabling the (re)imagining alternative modes of digital urbanism in Berlin.
Approach
Telling observational and performative tales, this research follows multiple, creative, and careful practices of bottom-up collectives in Berlin. The collectives range from DYI internet infrastructure with autonomous data-hub (technological sovereignty), tech-feminist collectives (cyber feminist cities) to self-organised food deliveries (platform-cooperativism).
The research is also podcasting on its conceptual and empirical journey:
