  Public Realm activity: "Public Realm: Raise awareness on urban mobility issues"

  Participants: 90 participants of the Hackathon, UPC students and anonymous citizens

  Responsibles: Adrian Catalin, Mónica Aguilar, Elisa Sayrol

  Data: 19th December 2022, 9:00-14:00

  Location: Via Augusta, 140, 08006 Barcelona.

  The project 4I4U is oriented to make youth people between 15-23 years old more sensitive about the carbon footprint issued on their daily routes, and raise awareness of more sustainable urban mobility modes. In addition, it is the objective of the project to increase the awareness of young citizens about urban mobility problems learned through real projects, and encourage them to see how they can contribute to the improvement of urban mobility to achieve more living cities.

  This activity involves forty-eigth 15-16 years old students of a High School. The activity will be repeated in two groups of 24 students each, who are in the 4th year of ESO (Secondary Education). The students donwloaded our Apps MobilitApp and MAPPO three weeks before our meeting, so that they already are familiar with them. Agenda of activities in the classroom for each group:

  • 
    
  • 
    
  • Interactive presentation (10 min). The goal is to make them aware of the pollution issue in the urban mobility. Also, we will talk about micro-mobility, sustainable mobility and public transport compared to the effects of using private car/moto.
  • 
    
  • 
    
  • Urban Mobility Form (5 min). At the end of the presentation we will ask them to fill in our Form about Urban Mobility issues. After, we will debate about what they have learnt from the information given in the form.
  • 
    
  • 
    
  • Summary of the MobilitApp tool (5 min). We will briefly present our tool MobilitApp developed to help city entities in charge of public transport to easily analyze the mobility flows of citizens. MobilitApp predicts the means of transport being used with high accuracy. The application is in development and we will explain the current work we are doing, to open a discussion of ideas with the students.
  • 
    
  • 
    
  • Co-creation activity using the MobilitApp tool (30 min). The goal is that the students organized in 4 groups, propose an algorithm to perform correctly the process of reading sensor data in MobilitApp. We will show them a piece of the MobilitApp code and propose them to solve a challenging problem about the sensors sampling frequency. They have to design a flowchart of the pre-code to solve the problem.
  • 
    
  • 
    
  • Summary of the MAPPO tool (10 min). The tool MAPPO shows 3 alternative routes over the map of Barcelona (OpenStreetMap) to follow a same itinerary on foot: the shortest route, the less polluted route and an intermediate route. We will show them the Dataset of Pullution available in the Barcelona Open Data BCN, which updates the pollution values every 5 min, taken from 8 stations deployed throughout the city. The application is in development and we will explain the current work we are doing, to open a discussion of ideas with the students.
