Dorple is the participation platform for spatial projects — from neighbourhood regeneration and local area plans to research and design processes. Residents share their input via the app; local authorities and consultancy firms manage, analyse and report via the partner portal.
Analyse the accessibility and user-friendliness of streets and squares. Monitor the quality and maintenance of infrastructure and map out how members of the public actually use and experience public spaces.
Map the actual routes (traces) taken by cyclists and pedestrians. Identify barriers and optimise the local transport infrastructure.
Gauge the pulse and vibrancy of squares and meeting places. Gain an understanding of local street culture and the impact of informal street communication.
Photos, areas for improvement, ideas and routes — straight onto the map.
Automatic analysis of photos, mobility patterns, and a summary for your file.
Manage and analyse data with the Dorple Partner Portal
Designed to facilitate participation on a large scale, not tracking individuals.
When it comes to urban regeneration, new-build projects and neighbourhood plans, valuable knowledge often goes unnoticed — yet this input is essential for ensuring that spatial decisions enjoy broad support.
The dorple app puts experience central, involves people you often miss with traditional participation - such as young people - and offers policymakers and designers insight into what lives, what works and where opportunities lie. This is how you bridge the gap between plans and practice.
In neighbourhoods and districts, valuable ideas, perceptions and experiences often live under the radar. At the same time, spatial plans are usually designed from above, while it is precisely the local knowledge and involvement of residents that are essential for sustainable change.
We believe in the power of local knowledge. Dorple helps cities and study agencies to really involve residents in spatial plans.
