# Colouring London

|
|
How many buildings are there in a city? What are their characteristics? Where
|
|
are they located and how do they contribute to the city? How adaptable are
|
|
they? How long will they last, and what are the environmental and
|
|
socio-economic implications of demolition?
|
|
|
|
Colouring Cities is a web-based citizen social
|
|
science project designed to help address these questions by crowdsourcing and
|
|
visualising twelve categories of information on the buildings in our cities.
|
|
|
|
## Structure
|
|
|
|
This repository will contain open-source code for the project which:
|
|
|
|
- stores building footprint polygons and source metadata
|
|
- allows site users to record building attribute data
|
|
- serves map tiles rendered from collected data
|
|
- allows site visitors to download the collected building attribute data
|
|
|
|
Building attribute data collected as part of the project will be made available
|
|
for download under a liberal open data license
|
|
([ODbL](https://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/1.0/)).
|
|
|
|
## Setup and run
|
|
|
|
#### Customise the Application:
|
|
|
|
You can customise the Colouring Cities application by changing the values in the following file:
|
|
|
|
`app/src/cc-config.json`
|
|
|
|
For more information on the config system, see [docs/configuring-colouring-cities](docs/configuring-colouring-cities.md).
|
|
|
|
#### Test the application:
|
|
|
|
You can try out the Colouring Cities application by setting up your own development environment, which includes the option to load test data from OpenStreetMaps (OSM). See [docs/setup-dev-environment](docs/setup-dev-environment.md).
