LopiAsk is a combination of an online survey and a map.
It enables consultation and research studies directly in the space – respondents answer questions and mark specific locations on the map that require changes, report needs, or identify problems.
It is a PPGIS tool that integrates spatial data with participatory processes enabling residents to become active co-creators of their local environment.
How it works?
- Respondents fill out a questionnaire displayed alongside a map, where they can immediately mark their answers.</p>
<p>- Questions can be general or spatial. You can choose from closed questions (single- or multiple-choice), sliders and matrices, as well as open-ended questions. </p>
<p>- For spatial questions, respondents can add points, lines, or areas directly on the map.
What LopiAsk enables?
- easy collection and analysis of quantitative and qualitative data</p>
<p>- precise mapping of responses on an interactive map</p>
<p>- Questionnaire customization through the logic module, which allows tailoring subsequent questions based on previous answers
LopiAsk versus LopiTalk
While LopiTalk is designed for open discussions, exchanging opinions, and marking and commenting on proposals, LopiAsk focuses on individual responses and precise data mapping.<br>It is the ideal tool when the goal is to collect data, understand residents’ opinions, or identify needs without participants influencing each other.
Where LopiAsk excels?
LopiAsk is particularly useful in the early stages of planning and design, for collecting diagnostic data, analyzing residents’ needs, planning infrastructure, or conducting scientific research.</p>
<p>It effectively supports spatial consultation processes, complementing traditional methods.I
