INTERACTIVE VISUALIZATION TOOL - INVITO FOR SUSTAINABLE PLANNING
Abstract
Succesful planning nowadays involves broad spectrum of stakeholders including general public. Data needed might not be easily available and cannot be combined together within a single tool accessible by various stakeholders. This article will introduce interactive visualization tool InVito which enable to combine various data layers into comprehensive visual representation of mutual impacts based on defined mathematical equations. This tool was prepared by support from project Implementation of Sustainable Land Use in Integrated Environmental Management of Functional Urban Areas ? LUMAT, CE89 supported by Interreg CENTRAL EUROPE Programe. The article explains current capabilities of the InVito tool on examples of localities in the Function urban area Ostrava, showing how various data about infrastructure, landscape and sociodemographic structure can be visualized to provide hints about which areas of the region are mostly influenced by selected factors and this way would provide base for discussion among stakeholders about e.g. development plans. The level of expertise required for creators and users of models is also discussed in the article.
