The purpose of Spraw Decisions is to design, build, and test (in both laboratory and real-world settings) simulations and decision support technologies to overcome perceptual, social-psychological, organizational, and technological barriers to achieving effective urban design and environmental negotiations and decisions. The key goal of the project is to develop decision support technologies that can assist citizens to be more knowledgeable and effective spokespersons for their interests in a sustainable built environment.
