The outcomes Better Cities The Better Cities Digital High Street Collaboration Scheme is highly innovative and progressive. It provides a unique opportunity for all high street stakeholders (Local Authorities, merchants and the public) to collaborate effectively in a new way and then to benefit from the new value created. G.A.P.S. Gather, Analyse, Play, Strengthen The traditional way of planning our cities has created socio-spatial inequality. Only a small percentage of spaces are successful while many others are underused, resulting in some gaps both in the built environment and in the social use of the city. OverHear - Event map app OverHear is a solution to our collective fear of missing out, Sheffield has plenty of entrepreneurs working to energise the city centre, the problem is that efforts are not communicated to citizens. OverHear tackles this problem by simply helping users search for events on a map by use of a time slider, that way user does not need to know the name of the event or know those attending. Situate - self-guided tour apps Imagine having a personal tour guide whenever we visited a museum or gallery. That would be the ideal way of getting the most out of a venue. Unfortunately, that is normally not possible for obvious reasons! 16
