Inspiration
Todays issue is that many nature parks are overcrowded or closed.
To avoid closing, we can use an app -guide people to safe places -introduce them new places -give authorities a possibility to monitor overcrowding, and limit access if needed instead of total closing -Visiting Activities can be pre-booked, Parking can be pre-booked. Amount of "Lisence to Go" can be set up by authorities -give control back to people, a way to plan next day, next week within given limits and Go Smart, go out safely
When we are opening the society, this could be a controlled way to open again to avoid issues of rushing out, all at the same time.
What it does
CONCEPT BRIEFLY: An app for all people who want to go out hiking, and for authorities to control overcrowding.
Todays issue is that many nature parks are overcrowded or closed. Users could plan their next activities, and simultaneously create (and use) a heatmap to see where it is safe to go. On the other hand authorities could give a limited amount of permissions for such visits, and keep people safe. Users could propose and find new places to visit, give feedback etc. There could also be a little game twist, visit x new places without seeing anybody etc. We could make UI look like a game board, which tells you which site and path to choose. Join us, if you are creative and can build an app. We have specs, lets make it real. GO SMART!
Actually use of the app could be broader, like museums, libraries and other attractions. To open also those gradually. When people can plan beforehand and book visits, it is possible to let only 20 or 50 people in a library at the time etc.
How I built it
Lets get started. Concept, UI draft, logic are ready. No coding yet.
Challenges I ran into
Systems were down, and I am new to this. A lot and lot presentations to read. Flowchart of the main process, please!
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Overall concept ad idea. There is a clear need for this, but I was the first.
What I learned
I will participate again. Start earlier.
What's next for GoSmart
Find financing, get it done. A proper MVP can be set up in 2-4 weeks. Then it takes a quarter to get really going, test and develop. Probably we need separate DBs, and also local country level administrators.
Itsgreatoutthere has offered help to promote the app and contact authorities and companies. I appreciate it highly.
I will also use my local contacts.
Lets make this rock!
