[SoC] App for Walkability and Drivability Score

[karthik R]

Hi,

Myself karthik studying M.Tech GIS in NIIT university, India. I had done
GIS related works in my B.Tech and now doing in M.Tech. In this I would
like to create an App using GIS. I know C#, python, javascript, HTML. so my
idea is creating an Walk score and Bike score app using GIS.

It’s a both Web App and Android App. It’s a Smart City App. I would like to
do on Bangalore City, India. Because one of the major issues in India is
Urbanization. By 2030, more than 50 per cent of India’s population is
expected to live in urban areas.


Drive less. Live more. Our mission is to help people find a walkable place
to live and enjoy a walkable lifestyle in an urban cities. Walk Score helps
you enjoy a walkable lifestyle, one of the simplest and best solutions for
environment, health and economy. Walkability is a big part of deciding
which homes to look at and to purchase. Walk Score is a numerical ranking
or score for any address based on the accessibility of surroundings by
walk. Similarly Bike score, Transit score, Drive Score has been generated.


App details:


   1. We will provide all the Apartments and Rent house details spatially
   located with map. They could choose their location and can able to create a
   buffer zone within a 5 km, 10 km or whatever they want. After that it list
   out all the features such as Shopping malls, Markets, Hospitals,
   Restaurants, Temples and all the other features are present within those
   zones which are spatially located on map and also in a attributes.
   2. Based upon the features the scores will be generated for that zone.
   If all the features they need are presented within a zone means Score
   should be high and vice versa.
   3. And also will provide route map to reach there and time taken to
   reach everything. So people will analyze the areas having more walk score,
   Bike score, Drive Score depend upon their choice and they can accommodate.
   4. And also will provide Crime map of an area to analyze the crime
   details before they migrate for safety purpose.
   5. We will also include Crowd source facility like if anyone want to
   include their shops, Rent houses, Restaurants and any other features means
   they can take photos upload their information and locate their points using
   maps.
