Exploring the Prospects of Developing a Smartphone Application for Pedestrians

Abstract

This paper explores the prospects for developing a smartphone application to promote walking and sustainable mobility. The investigation is based on a review of available Information and Communication Technology (ICT) as well as existing applications. A survey is also carried out in order to evaluate young peoples' attitudes on aspects of active mobility and the necessity for a smart pedestrian application. The collected data was statistically analyzed, whereby important requirements were elicited for software development. It was shown that the survey method is an effective way for gathering initial requirements and verifying whether it is worthwhile to proceed to software development and implementation. Regarding the application, young people are quite positive on the prospects for a smart pedestrian navigation system.
