Abstract

Everyone is enveloped by a “bubble” of information that accompanies them in the urban space of the 21st century. Each one is equipped with an individualised technical object, manages his/her own information bubble. These objects and information bubbles act as tools for socio-spatial reading of territories thanks to the Internet of Things. We have sought to launch a reflection on the cartographic reading of mobility in territories via mobile technical objects. This paper proposes to deepen this reflection according to a cartographic methodology around the case of Istanbul: how the global technical knowledge transformed into a technical object is assimilated to the logic of the axes of mobility, makes it possible to read the transformation of Istanbul. According to this logic, what scenarios of sustainable urban mobility systems are possible for Istanbul in the future? We hypothesised that technical objects could lead us to the development of mobile territories. These moving territories would allow us to map the sustainable mobility networks of the future and would constitute a continuity with those of the past. Our results showed that non-visible factors such as digital traces of individualised technical objects create mobile territories. These territories are like a tool to better understand the organism of the city with its inhabitants as urban designers over time.
