See spatial patterns that indicate disparities that need addressing. Target neighborhoods that need your assistance the most. Having the information you need at your fingertips can transform your approach to projects.

Custom App Development
Urbagraphics can build customs apps for your project to enhance your community engagement, collect data and surveys, present project materials, or any idea you can think of, the possibilities are endless. The apps can be optimized for both desktop and mobile use and in any language, ensuring access when and where it’s needed.
Below you will find an example of an interactive map for community engagement that allows community members to pin their ideas on the map, upvote and downvote the ideas they like or disagree with, and have a discussion with their neighbors. What can Urbagraphics create for your project?
The Urbagraphics team will not only create the app for you, we can also assist with moderating, data analysis, and other support needed to ensure you get the most use out of the custom app to suit your project needs.
