WikiMap Linz is an interactive,
virtual city map that supplements a cartographic depiction of Linz’s
topography and man-made features with individually customized artistic,
associative, historical or visionary views of the cityscape. A Web
interface enables locals and visitors alike to post texts, images
and sounds as a way of interweaving virtual information landscapes
into the urban scenery and infrastructure. Post your stories in the
city!
The WIKImap project was
launched in conjunction with the Hotspot Linz initiative that will
be setting up a citywide WLAN zone by 2008. |

WikiMap Vienna |
|
|
 |
|
A city map can do a lot more than merely provide an overview of streets and buildings. It can reflect the lives of the people who walk along these streets and live in these buildings. It can tell their stories. WikiMap Vienna is just such a city map. At www.wikimap.at/ncs anybody can get actively involved in customizing it by adding texts, images and sounds to buildings, streets and squares. This genre of location-based multimedia storytelling is suited to a wide variety of projects and agendas—from associative, artistically inspired encounters with the cityscape to manifestos of future urban planning issues. The result is a map comprised of information, impressions and sounds, though actually something far beyond a map: an interactive domain of knowledge and communication. |
