The Chicago Planning Tour mobile app is sponsored by Parsons Brinckerhoff for the 2013 American Planning Association National Conference in Chicago April 13-17, 2013. The Planning Tour App was developed in partnership with GeneXus USA, a business and data driven mobile app provider, and the Metropolitan Planning Council (MPC), a Chicago nonprofit policy and planning advocate. The app highlights planning-related events and projects in metropolitan Chicago for conference-goers.

Users of the app are able to get directions to specific locations, view exhibits and recently completed planning and development projects, and share their experiences via social media (Facebook and Twitter).
As an incentive to visit a site, when a user checks in with their smart device at a location, they will be given coupons or award points.

•Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning
