The IÖ app aims foremost to provide students with a more innovative, intuitive tool than a pocket calculator, or Excel; one that suits the subjective nature of real estate potential analysis. The mobile app also seeks to better accommodate the site-dictated nature of the architectural discipline. It would furnish students with a hands-on tool for appraising real estate parameters in real-world settings, visibly reinforcing for them the direct link between the built environment and its surrounding economic context.
