Over the last decade, new spatial means have been keenly developed on geo-social, location-based networking systems and more
recently through mobile applications, with significant personalized digital content, full of cognitive and perceptive clues. Culling
this information and having it as the main source of analysis, this study explores the cartography of the city of Rio de Janeiro,
portraying some of its outdoors recreational activities that are partially invisible in the daily life, advocating the potentiality of
this methodological and theoretical framework to disrupt traditional spatial paradigms and contributes to urban research, design,
education and representation.
