Digital Wayfinding Now Available in Greeley CO
Discovering the best of the “Creative District” in Greeley, Colorado is now easy, thanks to a new wayfinding system that combines on-site digital signage with interactive mobile technology. The Greeley Creative District (GCD) is a local hub for art, entertainment, enrichment, and history. In an effort to promote the area, Greeley has deployed wayfinding software that allows citizens and visitors to quickly see - via mobile device or home computer - all the neighborhood has to offer.
While browsing the mobile maps, users can tap a location for more information, such as the historic significance of the Union Pacific Depot or the operating hours of the Atlas Theater. Contact information and websites are readily available - right within the app - for people who wish to know more. And a built-in widget keeps pedestrians on the right track as they head for their next destination.
The mobile maps are a community project. Citizens of Greeley are invited to vote for their favorite places, and add new ones that are missing from the app. Businesses are welcome to purchase advertising with a place marker or detail page, which simultaneously helps support the project and boost the local economy. The interactive wayfinding campaign is helping the GCD to guide local citizens and out-of-town visitors on a journey of discovery that is as unique and delightful as the District itself.
