This app was designed for use in a doctoral research project in Sociology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. It sends location data anonymously to a server at the University of Wisconsin, which will be the object of quantitative analysis, to understand how people spend time in their neighborhood spaces.

The app allows the user to identify favorite neighborhood spots by tapping on the home screen while at that location, and also occasionally asks questions about the users current location (no more than 3 times a day, between 9AM and 9PM).

It is intended primarily for survey participants who are in contact with the main researcher (see links for more information), but it is available to anyone.
