Platform Urbanism – Digital platforms and their role in the city
Indruch, Ondřej ; Bílý, Radoslav (referee) ; Palacký, Jiří (advisor)
The theoretical diploma thesis follows up on the undergraduate work examining the issue of „Platform urbanism“ using the method of studying literature. Starting with physical platforms, their interconnection with digital platforms and the concept of a smart city, to a possible overlap into virtual reality. The theoretical diploma thesis examines the transformation of urban space through digital platforms from the perspective of experience and knowledge from advanced development abroad to early development in the city of Brno in order to answer the established research question: „What is the role of platforms within the city and how do they influence its development?“ Through knowledge from undergraduate work and the connection to the concept of a smart city, three main sectors - transport, real estate, shopping, and three additional sectors - health, identification, communication - are selected with regard to city life, basic human needs and representation on digital platforms. According to ownership, individual sectors are divided into those managed by the city, region and state and otherwise by private companies. Specific representatives of digital platforms are divided according to the scale of the platform or operating company into three fields - local, regional, global. This creates an up-to-date overview of relevant digital platforms operating in the city of Brno in order to answer the second research question set by the author during the work: „Is it possible to compile an overview of urban platforms that affect city life and development?“ To gain experience and knowledge in the city of Brno, a questionnaire survey was conducted focused on individual sectors of digital platforms operating in the city. Based on local and foreign knowledge and experience, a SWOT analysis is compiled for individual sectors of digital platforms. The examination of individual sectors is concluded by a critical evaluation and subsequent recommendations or solutions. The research on the issue of platform urbanism, specifically digital platforms, is finally evaluated from the author‘s point of view. Based on research findings, the author theoretically proposes a digital solution with possible global application and a physical solution for a specific sector of actors operating in Brno.
