Abstract :

 

Urban decay areas impose significant costs on city management and require proper planning for renewal. Urban managers need precise knowledge of urban areas to formulate renewal plans. Utilizing the capacities of Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) provides an appropriate response to this need. The aim of this research is to design a Web GIS that leverages Web 2.0 capabilities to collect data from residents of decayed areas. For this purpose, a three-layer architecture, including a GIS server, database layer, and display layer, was designed using technologies such as ArcGIS Server, SQL Server, JavaScript, Dojo, and others. The results of this study show that VGI systems can crowdsource a large volume of data on decayed areas from citizens in the shortest possible time and with significantly reduced data collection costs. This method also helps prioritize urban decay renewal plans.
