The Participatory Sensing Platform Driven By Ugc For The Evaluation Of Living Quality In The City

In this paper, we present a mobile-based participatory sensing method to engage citizens' participation in the living quality evaluation. The system called City Probe consists of the APP and the platform to provide the location-based services. City Probe allows citizens to identify and assess the spatial issues. By using the rating function of City Probe APP, citizens can turn the qualitative spatial issues into measurable UGC data. In addition, the UGC data are visualized as (1) rating value map, (2) rating amount map, and (3) rating heat map to present the different quantitative patterns of city. The experiment of arcade survey verifies the value of City Probe by locating and assessing the OCCUPANCY issue.
