Abstract

Visitors’ satisfaction appears to be an essential indicator for the success of urban regeneration projects, as the finding reflects people's expectation of regeneration projects, which are the necessary design drivers for project designers in their ideation. The covid-19 pandemic has limited many conventional research approaches, in particular in the human-centred study that requires the face-to-face contact. Digital Footprint is data that is left behind when users have been online. Analysing the visitors’ digital footprint generated by the websites of TripAdvisor and Dianping, this method examines four post-industrial regeneration projects selected from China and the UK, to explore the factors that influence visitors’ satisfaction for regeneration projects within the two cultures. This paper extends the Digital Footprints method to the urban regeneration research, aiming to seek an alternative and practical method for researchers, designers, and project investigators in their future projects.
