Enhancing the KomMonitor Platform
Extending the KomMonitor platform to to support reachability analyses
The KomMonitor platform supports the management, visualization, and exploration of a broad range of data: socio-demographic, city planning, infrastructure, environmental, etc. It was mainly developed by the Bochum University of Applied Sciences in a dedicated research project.
G.I.B. mbH is a state-owned company that supports the North Rhine-Westphalia state government in achieving its goals to promote employment, as well as combat unemployment, poverty and social exclusion. 52°North and the Bochum University of Applied Sciences collaborated to extend KomMonitor to support interactive and explorative reachability analyses. We developed a software component for processing spatial datasets that enables assessment of the accessibility of certain public utilities and infrastructure. In addition, the implementation of an interactive scenario planning as part of the KomMonitor Web Client will support municipalities for sustainable urban development. These enhancements were funded by the European Social Fund. Our team completed the main developments for this project in 2022.
