The beloud.now Dashboard

beloud.now Dashboard: Berlin analysis area overview

Overview: Berlin analysis area. Filterable by location, time and public context.

🗺️

Analysis area

City or defined space.

🕐

Time period

Today, yesterday, last week, last month or custom.

🎛️

Filters

Time of day, public context and period. Category and background fields appear at the individual place depending on the agreement.

📄

Report

Exportable report for a defined area and time period.

Data

Each report provides multiple perspectives.

📍

Location

Where did the experience take place? A report can include a location. The map shows individual places in public space — each coordinate shifted by a random distance of 15 to 25 metres before it is stored. The figures beside it are built from grid cells, not from coordinates.

🕐

Time

When did the experience take place? Time periods and times of day are aggregated for analysis.

📌

Context

In which public context?

  • 🚶 Public space
  • 🚇 Public transport
  • 🎉 Leisure / Nightlife
  • ❔ Not specified
🗂️

Type of experience

What happened? The same detail the public map in the app already shows for every place — from harassment and stalking to physical and sexualised violence.

🧭

Possible motivation, known or unknown

What may have played a role — misogyny, queerphobia, racism or abuse of power? And was the person known or a stranger? Both details are optional when documenting, and they are only unlocked for individual analysis areas where the agreed purpose requires it.

Experiences documented at home or in relationships are not carried over as individual locations — they do not appear on the map. That is a product and privacy decision.

Individual experiences reveal patterns.

A single report says little about a location. Many anonymously documented experiences can show where entries cluster, at which times of day they occur and in which public contexts experiences were reported. The dashboard can be narrowed down by time of day, context and period.

🚶 Öffentlicher Raum · 🌆 Abend · 😒 Belästigung
🚇 Nahverkehr · 🌙 Nacht · 😰 Unsicherheitsgefühl
🎉 Freizeit / Nachtleben · 🌆 Abend · 🤕 Körperliche Gewalt

These combinations are illustrative and do not represent specific statements about any particular city.

Has anything changed?

A snapshot says how things are. A time series says where they are going. The dashboard shows how documented experiences develop by day, week or month — for exactly the selection you have filtered.

„We changed the lighting on the station forecourt. Does anything change in the documented experiences after that?“

Two periods can be compared directly. What is compared is the number per day, not the total — periods of different length are otherwise not comparable.

A change does not automatically mean that more or less happened. Fewer documented experiences can also mean that fewer people documented. That is why the dashboard speaks of documented experiences and never of crime.

From the dashboard to a report.

For defined areas and time periods, aggregated data can be summarised as a report.

Example report Berlin

Example report: Berlin — Last 30 days.

Anonymously documented experiences. Not police statistics. No proof of individual crimes.

The report also includes a methodology explanation: time blocks, handling of missing incident dates and data classification.

Many experiences. Little shared visibility.

Cities already have numerous data sources. beloud.now is not intended to replace any of them. The platform adds something that is only partially visible in traditional statistics: the anonymously documented experiences of women and FLINTA*.

Not every answer. But better questions.

Also for city festivals and events.

Public events create their own spatial and temporal situations. beloud.now can help to view anonymously documented experiences around defined time periods and public spaces in an aggregated way. This allows safety concepts to be not only planned, but also reflected upon and developed further.

We are already working on a first pilot project with a city for a city festival.

🏙️

Cities & Municipalities

An additional perspective on experiences in public spaces.

🎉

Event organisers

Reflect on safety concepts for city festivals, festivals and events.

🔬

Research

Aggregated data for academic research questions.

💻

Technology partners

We are currently exploring initial cooperations for using aggregated data in other applications.

Data & method

The purpose is a different one: to make patterns visible, to recognise where action may be needed and to plan prevention more precisely.

Privacy is part of the product.

🗺️

Counts, not reports

The dashboard gives the number of documented experiences in the current selection.

🕐

No exact time of day

An individual place carries a calendar day and a part of the day — night, morning, afternoon, evening. The exact time is not stored for it.

🏠

Public space only on the map

Individual locations come only from public space, public transport and leisure, or carry no context at all.

🔐

Separate access

The dashboard does not access the report database directly.

What beloud.now is not.

Not police statistics

The data represents anonymously documented experiences of women and FLINTA*.

Not a danger map

A higher number of documented experiences does not automatically mean a location is objectively more dangerous.

No personal assessment

No individuals are evaluated.

No public prosecution

Reports are not legally verified statements of fact.

No surveillance

The dashboard is not intended for identifying or tracking individual women or FLINTA*.

Dashboard in 38 languages

The dashboard interface and its data labels are fully available in 38 languages — from German and English to Greek, Arabic, Ukrainian and Japanese. Arabic is set right to left. The language can be fixed per organisation.

The terms in the dashboard come from the same translation system as the app. They are not translated separately. What the reporting person ticked therefore means exactly the same thing in the analysis — in every language.

This product page itself is currently available in German and English.

New applications with aggregated data

We are open to cooperations with applications that incorporate spatial and temporal information about public spaces. We evaluate individually for each use case which aggregated data can be provided in a privacy-compliant and meaningful way.
