Evaluating Changes in the Venetian Retail Sector and Managing the Use of Public Space
The 2015 Venice Shops and Stalls Team
While the Venetian population is declining and tourism is rising, neighborhood shops are closing and tourist stores are opening. To analyze these changes two applications were developed with the purpose of collecting and visualizing data gathered by the team and provided by the Chamber of Commerce. These changes have also led to an increase in encroachment by plateatici, and to address the problems they create, the team developed an online system for managing and enforcing their use of public space.
Mission Statement
This project is intended to analyze the evolution of the retail sector in Venice and to alleviate the impact of plateatici on Venetians.
Objectives:
Develop a tool for analyzing the evolution of the retail sector.
