IRS990/Desc01)Public Life Data Protocol / New Public Life Tools / CPTEDOur work in 2017 focused in significant part on the development of new tools that would facilitate the study of how people use public spaces, and the benefits that can be derived from that use. A)The Public Life Data Protocol. The Public Life Data Protocol (the Protocol) describes a set of metrics that are important to the understanding of public lifepeople moving and staying in public spaceand aims to establish a common format for the collection and storage of such data. Used in conjunction with the Public Life Data Tools or other observational methods for collecting data about people in public space, the Protocol provides the structure for the data you collect. Based on four decades of research and application of data about public life to shape public policy, planning, and urban design, the Protocol is an open data specification intended to improve the ability of everyone to share and compare information about public life activity in public space. In recent years, practitioners and cities have incorporated people-centered metrics and public life data into their engineering models, investment decisions, and design choices. These methods, based on decades of research, have now been applied in hundreds of cities around the world. There is tremendous potential to make public life datasets more compatible, scalable, and comparable across different cities and regions. The protocol will be open for any and all to use, and will create a common language for cities to compare different spaces within their city limits, and to then compare their data with other cities. It ensures a high level of quality and accuracy while enabling more people to collect, share, and compare their data. Using public life data to create benchmarks and performance metrics for urban policies and programs is now a possibility, enabling cities to better serve people. An open, common language brings us that much closer to achieving our goal of making people more visible to policymakers, designers, and planners in public space.B)New Public Life Tools. We offer tools that draw on decades of applied research demonstrating how a walkable human scale is part of what makes cities interesting. The public life tools available on our website can help measure how people use public spaces and better understand the relationship between those spaces and the public life that takes place in them. In addition to making available tools that have long existed, we are developing new tools, including:a. The Social Space Survey, developed to address difficult questions: how can public spaces better serve more people? What role can design play in the process of bringing people together across difference? The tool encourages us to think critically about whats happening in a space, whos spending time there, and whether its design and program elements can be improved to foster more openness and inclusion.b. The Place Inventory, a tool for studying the physical features of a public space and how these features shape the experiences of visitors. It includes two parts: a mapping exercise in which you take stock of the physical features in a space that support public life (including seating, lighting, and plant life) and a qualitative survey about the overall look and feel of the space. Gaining a better understanding of this interplay will help think through what kinds of interventions might improve the space.c. The Building Facade Activation Survey, a tool for assessing the vibrancy of buildings and storefronts from a human-scale perspective. You might use this tool to better understand why a street does or doesnt attract people to spend time in public. The activation of a building facade and the number of entrances to a building is a strong predictor of when people will slow down and engage in activities rather than simply pass by. An active building facade presents opportunities for strangers to meet and mix, and provides an att
