Boston, DavidChoudhry, RaziaDavis, ChrisFinal project for URSP688L: Recent Developments in Urban Studies: Planning Technologies (Fall 2014). School of Architecture, Planning & Preservation. University of Maryland, College Park.This report aims to address questions on changing socio-economic and physical conditions in Frederick and how those conditions could formulated into a new neighborhood identification system. This report recommends that Geographic Information Systems (GIS) mapping, online surveys and photo sharing applications are some solutions for creating such a neighborhood identification system.
