The consortium of the interdisciplinary research project “Ageing Smart – Designing Spaces Intelligently”, funded by the Carl Zeiss Foundation, has published a joint edited volume entitled “Ageing Smart – Digitale Instrumente im kommunalen Kontext”. The volume presents key research findings from the project, ranging from studies on ageing and the baby boomer generation, to methods of digitalisation and visualisation in planning, and the development of strategies for decision support systems for municipal tasks.

The IPS subproject, represented by Prof. Dr Karina Pallagst and M.Sc. Jonas Pauly, contributed to three chapters of the edited volume, two of which were led by IPS as the main authors:
