“…It would be applicable to any collaborative planning session handling a variety of digital, analog, and dynamic spatial data [33]. As a generic platform for spatial dynamic data visualization, this approach could be extended to more complex data and the simulation modeling of complex systems, such as urban development [33], migration patterns [34], and urban traffic flows [35]. The presented application is site-specific, due to the nature of the site-specific data presented at the workshop.…”

In the planning and design of natural and urban environments, visualization plays an increasingly important role. It has become a core component of communication and dissemination within the various formats of project representation, environmental assessment, workshops, and stakeholder involvement in general. However, as a practical technology, the outputs of our visualizations are, too often, regarded as a static product rather than as a living and evolving tool in and of itself, often due to the inherent restrictions present in both the analog and digital technologies used in data curation and visualization creation. In this paper, we argue that with the increasing complexity and usability of digital technologies, we are now capable of bringing a heightened level of interactive dynamism to planning and design, improving the communicative power of landscape visualization. We introduce a theoretical adaptive visualization (AV) framework, designed to support project meetings and stakeholder interactions with iterative planning and design elements. To demonstrate the merits of the framework, we develop an augmented reality application following AV principles; we discuss the novel design interactions afforded by integrating alongside traditional analog and digital data sources, in an interactive and dynamic application. This is highlighted by a case study from the Pearl River Delta region, with a focus on planning and design for flood risk mitigation.

“…As reported by Croatian Bureau of Statistics data, the average age of the Croatian population increased from 37 years in 1991 to 44 years in 2021 [9], following the trend in most of the European countries [10]. According to [11], there is a noticeable increase in the proportion of people over the age of 65, and their share in the total population is expected to increase.…”

For more than two decades, developed countries have been confronted with two trends that have implications for the emergence of engaging senior citizens in the digital environment. On the one hand, there is an increasing proportion of senior citizens in the total population. On the other hand, the application of ICT in all areas of life and business is accelerating. This paper investigates the relationship between self-efficacy, social support, and social influence on Internet usage among senior citizens in Croatia. Survey research was conducted on a sample of Croatian senior citizens, and a structural equation mode was developed for testing the research hypothesis. Self-efficacy influenced both the Intensity and obstacles of Internet usage in a positive and negative manner, respectively. Social influence directly decreased the obstacles to Internet usage, while the relationship with the Intensity of the Internet was indirect through self-efficacy. Social support had only an indirect association with Intensity of Internet usage. Results have relevant implications for programmes aiming to enhance Internet usage among senior citizens, which should focus on the educational programmes fostering perceived self-efficacy of Internet usage among senior citizens.

On 17 June 2021, the Government of the Republic of Slovenia adopted a Bill on Long-term Care. This legislative activity also raised the question of the existence and effectiveness of a legal environment to promote social infrastructure development for housing and care of older adults. Social infrastructures include the facilities in which long-term care services are provided. Therefore, the new legislative proposal also raised the issue of the regulation of this social infrastructure and the housing and care solutions as a part of the social infrastructure since they benefit individuals and communities. Furthermore, in line with the growing trend towards deinstitutionalisation, the legal environments should enhance alternative housing solutions for the elderly. The purpose of this article is to describe the foundations of the social infrastructure for older adults and examine the legal basis for its provision. The research belongs to legal geography studies, which means that the substance of laws and materialisation in space are considered. We identified two primary spatial–legal barriers to overcome, which are (a) the separate treatment of the housing and health aspects and (b) the absence of the guarantee schemes for the construction of housing-with-care solutions. The results would be helpful for the optimal organisation of integrated care, which individual research groups in Slovenia are studying.
