Event Sustainability
We sometimes get pushback concerning our point that building sustainable options, heuristics, and wizard in our software can influence event producers into building more sustainable events. Until we have enough time and data to publish our own results, this paper makes our point.
What about using an event layout tool that incorporates sustainability concepts, and 1) makes sustainable options available, 2) reminds event producers to use them, and 3) tracks their usage?
There are many sources for event sustainability guidelines. Most are published by cities or sustainability-focus organizations. We list a few here.
EventMapStudio includes and automates many of these guidelines.
What about providing event producers with an event layout tool that incorporates sustainability concepts, and 1) makes sustainable options available, 2) reminds event producers to use them, and 3) tracks their usage?
A solid Solid Waste Plan is an important tool towards a sustainable zero-waste event . A good rule of thumb from SWACO, the Solid Waste Authority of Central Ohio, is to have recycle, waste, and compost bins grouped together and placed every 30-40 yards. This is not easy to achieve manually. You can use the Spatial Analysis tool in EventMapStudio to efficiently layout your recycle bins.
Understanding the public transit landscape around your event is important for your event greening effort. Knowing where the public transit access points are will help you better layout your event in particular entrances and exits to leverage the mass transportation network.
Automatically generate an interactive event map instead of purchasing and setting up an expensive customized event app map. You can update this map in real time to reflect last minutes changes.The resulting public event map can be integrated to the event's web site and access from desktops prior to the event, or from phones while at the event. It can also be included as an external link in most festival app software. The map can include logo/placement for vendors and sponsors, as well as links to vendors' pages including menus. The map an also include a Event Sustainability link to promote and educate the public about sustainable options and the event's sustainability work.
