CopenCycle

by karlcow

By revealing the pulse of the city, the project aims to show how technology can help individuals and the planning institutions to make more informed decisions about their environment with a special emphasis on the use of public spaces. In the long run, the project seeks to integrate the technologies for more detailed studies of e.g. bicycle movements, services and routes in relation to sustainable urban transportations.
