The purpose of Plan-P is to make urban planning more comprehensible to non-professionals and stimulate discussion.
During Espoo day, the focus was on the Otaniemi area illustrating the building targets of the Espoo city planning board for new housing. During the day, many interested city dwellers tried out the application and the ABE team got valuable feedback for its further development.
