Map

51. Best

Assuming you can
outcome borrow phones
and computers
3 months
From data collection to first
print / prototype

52. Data collection is not easy – especially on moving buses. Our top qualities
for a good flock is one that 1) share your values, 2) rides the vehicle that you
The First Bus Map of
are looking to map, 3) can mobilize quickly, and 4) gives brutally honest
feedback. Jackets help too.
Dhaka

53. ২৭
In Dhaka, a physical bus sign may be the best way to reach bus riders. In
Nairobi, SMS. Your final info-products should guide your data collection
process and not the
other way around.

54. While sometimes the best tools will be pen and paper, mobile devices like
smartphones and tablets make data collection easier to monitor and manage
esp when you have a large flock. They also can be programmed to
simultaneously collect data that is automatically sensored and human sensored
like crowding.
