Development of an Online Application for Crowdsourcing Pedestrian Infrastructure Concerns to Promote People-Based Urban Development
Introduction
Key Background
Rules and regulations provided by the local government regarding the clearing of pedestrian spaces. Elaborate on the MMDA Resolution No. 28-02, July 25, 2002.
Despite those rules and regulations, issues and difficulties are still being encountered by pedestrians.
Problem Statement
The need for a platform that will allow individuals to raise their specific concerns on pedestrian spaces that will assist persons of authority.
Objectives
General Objective
To design and propose a public reporting platform that will allow citizens to easily report obstructions and illegal structures along sidewalks and other pedestrian spaces
Specific Objectives
To identify the most common types of sidewalk obstructions and their impact on pedestrian accessibility and safety.
To assess current public awareness of MMDA Resolution No. 28-02 and its relevance to urban mobility.
To design a user-friendly reporting interface that allows citizens to submit location-based complaints or observations.
To establish a data flow model connecting public reports to concerned local government units and MMDA offices.
To evaluate how a participatory reporting system can enhance transparency, accountability, and efficiency in clearing public spaces.
