Infiltration Techniques in Urban Environments

I was thinking about how critical situational awareness is when infiltrating urban settings. For example, blending in with locals can be invaluable — using tools like a local map app to spot hotspots or avoid trouble. Has anyone experimented with specific techniques or tools that really helped them during an operation in a city? I’m looking to refine my approach.
