How many buildings are there in Indonesia? What are their characteristics? Where are they located and how do they contribute to the city? How adaptable are they? How long will they last, and what are the environmental and socio-economic implications of demolition?
Colouring Indonesia is a web-based citizen social science project designed to help address these questions by crowdsourcing and visualising twelve categories of information on Indonesia’s buildings.
This repository will contain open-source code for the project which:
- stores building footprint polygons and source metadata
- allows site users to record building attribute data
- serves map tiles rendered from collected data
- allows site visitors to download the collected building attribute data
Building attribute data collected as part of the project will be made available for download under a liberal open data license (ODbL).
You can try out the Colouring Indonesia application by setting up your own development environment, which includes the option to load test data from OpenStreetMaps (OSM). See docs/setup-dev-environment.

We also have documentation on setting up a production environment here: docs/setup-production-environment.

Note: There are additional useful documentation within the /docs folder.
Colouring Indonesia was set up as a part of The Colouring Cities Research Programme at The Alan Turing Institute through a collaborative effort between King's College London and Institut Teknologi Bandung. Jakarta Satu is providing building footprints required to collect the data, facilitated by the Pemprov DKI Jakarta.
