Abstract

Collective memory characterizes the behavior of certain groups of people that form communities inside an urban environment. Quality of life, as a smart city objective, should concern the understanding of diversity, reducing alienation and preservation of people’s intangible cultural heritage. In this paper we attempt to give a first answer to such problems proposing and implementing a trustworthy mobile crowdsourcing system for a collective memory management based on the needs of users, specialists or not. We demonstrate a basic usage scenario to show the strength of the implemented services, along with a first system evaluation showing positive results.
