Implementation of GIS in sustainable urban mobility plans

Abstract

The goal of implementing the Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) is to create a sustainable urban transport system and in this regard, it is necessary to stimulate the users to non-motorized, sustainable, transport modes. There are a number of measures that need to be implemented to achieve the planned improvements. One of the basic features of SUMP implementation is a participatory approach, which means involving all stakeholders, from citizens to decision makers, from the beginning to the end of the planning process. In this way, the public expresses an opinion, which will be considered when implementing of the plan starts. GIS is one of the modern tools that enables more active public participation in the implementation of SUMP. The "pilot" version of the Web-GIS application has been developed through which the public can participate in the implementation of SUMP. It is an interactive uMap, which is supported by an open street map, and which every user can access with a modern device (mobile phone, computer or tablet) and thus express their ideas and visions in order to improve the urban environment.
