“…A more elaborate example is the Seattle Band Map [5] exploring the region's music scene through tracking the interconnectedness of bands across personal relationships and collaborations. Mapping activities have benefited from advances in Geographical Information Systems and crowdsourcing techniques (Mattioli, 2014). Over the years, digital tools to plot data on maps have become more accessible and user-friendly, leading to a plethora of activity by both commercial and non-commercials actors.…”

PurposeThis paper sets out to compare different methodologies for measuring the value(s) of live popular music and to explore the different motivations amongst a range of organisations engaged in that work.Design/methodology/approachThe authors analyse how the values of live music are measured, who does it and why. Based on this analysis the authors present a model that visualises the myriad of organisations, methods, aims and objectives involved.FindingsThe authors identify three approaches to measuring the impact of live music (economic impact studies, mapping and censuses and social sciences and humanities) and three types of actors (industry, policy and academia). The analysis of these demonstrates that measuring live music is not a neutral activity, but itself constructs a vision on how live music ecologies functionPractical implicationsFor cultural organisations, demonstrating the outcomes of their work is important in acquiring various forms of support. The model presented in this paper helps them to select adequate methodologies and to reflect on the consequences of particular approaches to measuring live music activities.Originality/valueWhile the number of studies measuring live music's impact is growing, theoretical and methodological reflection on these activities is missing. The authors compare the different methodologies by discussing strengths and weaknesses. This results in a model that identifies gaps in existing studies and explores new directions for future live music research. It enhances understanding of how different ways of measuring live music affect policymaking and conceptions of what live music is and should be.

In recent years, the development of cities and urban areas in Serbia has been based on large-scale projects aimed at transforming inadequately regulated, abandoned, devastated, or empty locations, especially in major cities. This trend, although directly spatially focused to certain locations within the city, has much broader consequences for the city and its inhabitants, reflected in changes in the quality of life and the environment in cities, traffic, housing accessibility, cultural and visual identity of the city, etc. Additionally, contemporary processes in urban development, characterized by weakened planning processes and the absence of strategic and long-term planning for future development, have been replaced by partial planning and project design. Characteristics of this planning and development management approach include the usurpation and misuse of public space and public interest, abuse of planning and plans as instruments for implementing private and other interests, along with a lack of transparency, democracy, and citizen participation, which would ensure the legitimacy of proposed planning and project solutions. On the other hand, with the development of information technologies, numerous opportunities arise for more efficient and successful urban development management. In this regard, city development focuses on accelerated digitalization in various development areas, including urban development and future city planning. In such an atmosphere, where pressure from private interests and large capital on the planning system in Serbia exists on one hand, and the desire to modernize and digitize society on the other, the question arises of how modern information technology tools, primarily GIS, can help overcome the problems facing urban planning practice today. This paper will present a platform based on Web GIS technology and the possibilities of its application in spatial development management. Using a specific example, it will demonstrate how GIS can help present spatial and urban planning solutions in a spatial context, adequately visualize them, and communicate them to a wider audience, all for the purpose of increasing transparency and reducing misuse of planning solutions and processes.
