With a focus on active community management and prioritization, CIVIS is set to transform digital maps into dynamic tools for enhancing strategic urban areas.\n\n### **Problem Statement:**\n\nModern cities are growing with rapid and uncontrolled expansion, further complicated by ever-changing regulations and governance. This chaos often leads to the loss or confusion of essential urban data, resulting in disjointed and inefficient urban development.\n\n### **Solution:**\n\nOver the past five years, Cities of the Future **([citiesofthefuture.org](http://citiesofthefuture.org/))** has amassed a vast database of global projects. We have meticulously gathered city-specific data, creating detailed project profiles with photos, diagrams, digital maps, and YouTube videos. The next step is to develop a map-based platform to overlay diverse urban infrastructure networks so we can explain explore more detailed information on projects.\n\n**Key Goals:**\n\n1. Develop an evaluation system to score projects based on our six pillars and various design strategies and technologies.\n2. Introduce tokenization of urban infrastructure projects for real-world applicability.\n3. Maintain a free, accessible platform for users.\n\n\nIn Cities of the Future, we work on transforming urban landscapes through innovative design strategies and emerging technologies. Since our inception in 2016, starting as a modest blog, we've grown into a vibrant online community with over 28,000 subscribers. Our platform is dedicated to showcasing and discussing groundbreaking urban development projects, fostering a space where knowledge and ideas are freely exchanged.\n\nOur flagship projects, known as \"urban radiography,\" involve collaborations with the governments of Mexico City. In these projects, we focus on digitizing complex urban intersections to meticulously analyze the flow of pedestrians, vehicles, and public transportation. By employing sophisticated tools like drones and advanced video processing, we extract vital data that is crucial for understanding and improving urban traffic dynamics. By simulating different scenarios we can better predict how cities will react to changes. Our approach is data-driven and centered on practical solutions, demonstrating our commitment to enhancing city planning and development through innovative methods.\n\nWe are initially focusing on six pillars for digitalization:\n\n1. Mobility (Streets, sidewalks, stations, bus stops, digital public transport schedules (GTFS))\n2. Waste Management (Waste collection points, recycling centers)\n3. Energy (Energy distribution systems, street lights)\n4. Water (Water distribution systems, rainwater collection)\n5. Environment (Green areas, trees, conservation areas, parks)\n6. Security/Safety (Safe crossings, surveillance cameras)\n\n### **Implementation Plan and Roadmap:**\n\n**Next Steps with Gitcoin Grant 19:**\n\n- **Phase 1 - :** Development of a Web App Pilot, focusing on interface design, user experience, and interactive visualizations.\n- **Phase 2 - :** Creation of a Mobile App Pilot, with an emphasis on environmental and mobility aspects.\n- **Phase 3 - :** 'Vallejo-I - Urban forest digitalization' - Digitally mapping trees and street quality.  Vallejo-I is a new technology and innovation district in the north of the city.\n\n### **Team:**\n\n- **Mauricio Berm\u00fadez:** An architect and technology enthusiast.\n- **Marco Bochicchio:** An architect specialized in environmental sustainability.\n\n### **The Future Vision:**\n\nWe envision digitally replicating cities across the globe, continuously generating updates and analyzing data. creating content about the world's most innovative urban projects. CIVIS aspires to revolutionize urban planning and community engagement, creating efficient, sustainable cities that resonate with the needs of their residents.\n\n### **Budget and Funding Requirements:**\n\nWe will provide a transparent, accountable breakdown of the allocation of funds for each project phase, ensuring efficient use of the Gitcoin grant.\n\n### **Community Engagement:**\n\nOur strategy involves deep engagement with local communities and stakeholders. We plan to integrate their input into the CIVIS platform, including initiatives for community-based mapping of strategic areas, potentially compensated for their contributions.\n\n### **Sustainability Plan:**\n\nWe outline our approach to maintaining and scaling CIVIS post-grant, exploring potential revenue models and future funding opportunities.\n\n### **Closing Remarks:**\n\nWe are thrilled about CIVIS's potential to positively impact urban development and community empowerment. Our sincere thanks to Gitcoin community for considering our application, and we eagerly anticipate the opportunity to collaborate on building more resilient, well-planned, and inclusive cities.\n\n### **Contact Information:**\n\n[hello@citiesofthefuture.org](mailto:hello@citiesofthefuture.org)", "lastUpdated": 0, "projectTwitter": "citiesotfuture"}, "recipient": "0xC3dD3363b565DAB67387c7B9A9A1435f9eAa87DC"}}
