Cities are full of things happening right now. Most of them never show up on any map. Gatherground shows you the present and future.
A temporal layer for the physical world.
Open it. See what's happening near you right now. Explore a neighborhood.
You check the weather before you leave. It takes two seconds and saves you an hour. Gatherground is that same instinct for your city. See live events, gatherings, and moments near you. Without the noise. Every interaction builds a live picture of how cities are actually used.
We worked at Google, Snapchat, and Mapbox. Years of field research across four continents studying how humans and their environments shape each other.
We kept arriving somewhere new and couldn't find what was actually happening. So we built it.
"There's a gap between how cities are officially mapped and how communities actually inhabit them."
That gap is where Gatherground lives. Cities are always being used differently than they were planned. We built a platform to surface that difference, at street level, in real time.
