MetroQuest is digital engagement software. It provides organizations with a powerful, flexible, cost effective tool for engaging a broad and diverse set of stakeholders. From gathering priorities to rating scenario alternatives, MetroQuest makes it easy to generate meaningful input on for a wide range of planning projects. As a complement to traditional town-hall-type-meetings, MetroQuest reaches stakeholders via the internet to enable a two-way exchange with a larger, more diverse group of stakeholders. MetroQuest runs in a web browser and can be used at home, on a kiosk or portably on a iPad/tablet to reach stakeholders that do not typically participate. It can also be configured for use in town hall meetings. MetroQuest is a very flexible platform for providing information about and collecting input on a wide range of planning projects. It enables the public to explore and provide feedback using a variety of input techniques including ranking, rating, survey questions, map input, comments and scenario/tradeoff exploration/voting. To ensure that a broad cross-section of a community has the ability to participate in an engagement process, MetroQuest can be used on a variety of channels including on tablet computers, setup as a kiosk and/or in one-on-one use. This means that community members that are not likely to participate in a large group event and/or do not have access to a computer and an internet connection can nonetheless have their input included. This technique has been used effectively to reach youth, seniors and other communities that do not participate in more traditional engagement activities.
