Copenhagen's energetic nightlife scene is an everyday problem for residents living in the inner city district, many of whom don't feel like their voices are being heard by the city. We worked with Miljøpunkt Indre By & Christianshavn to determine the feasibility of implementing a mobile application for collecting data on nightlife noise disturbances. To accomplish this, we identified the problem's stakeholders, determined the app's users and their motivations, discovered technical considerations for the app, then designed and developed a prototype app. Following the research and development process, we created visualizations showcasing the potential of the app's data analytics and proposed further steps to improve the app and Copenhagen's existing nightlife noise management strategies.
