Kiez Finder: tell the map what you are looking for
Nine sliders instead of a search box: weight quiet, green space, S-Bahn proximity or voting behaviour, and the map recolours all 542 planning areas live.
Several map layers at once, finally readable
Each score dimension has its own colour, a second layer appears as size symbols, and roles can be swapped. Plus: a new logo.
Cool places: 18 open churches added, Passionskirche first
18 verified open churches and one neighbourhood centre join the map. New figures: 491 cool places open in summer, 298 free of charge.
taz tests the cool places map: "Refuge from heatstroke"
The taz tested the Heat Navigator against the authorities' maps. Result: 40 places around Gendarmenmarkt instead of two.
Cool places in hot weather: new layer and Heat Navigator
Over 500 cool places in Berlin, with live opening status, one-tap navigation and honest flags. A service on open data, not a replacement for the city.
Recorded crime: new context dimension
Recorded crime per Bezirksregion as standalone context. No safety verdict, no rank, not in the overall score.
Culture score: library, theatre, museum within reach
A separate sixth dimension measures cultural venues nearby, from OpenStreetMap. It stays out of the overall score because culture is inner-city heavy.
Amenities now count supermarkets, pharmacies and post offices
Besides daycare, schools and hospitals, the amenities score now measures local shops in the Kiez: groceries, pharmacy and post from OpenStreetMap.
Environment & infrastructure score: rebuilt
Five equally weighted dimensions, an overall map layer and a rebuilt inspector with a clickable score ring.
Election data since 2011
Four Bundestag, four House of Representatives and four District Assembly elections. Strongest party per address, a map per polling district, the trend per Kiez.
