摘要：Most data related to people and the built world originates in urban settings. There is increasing demand tocapture and exploit this data to support efforts in areas such as Smart Cities, City Science and Intelligent Trans-portation Systems. Urban informatics deals with the collection, organization, dissemination and analysis ofurban information used in such applications. However, the dramatic growth in the volume of this urban data cre-ates challenges for existing data-management and analysis techniques. The collected data is also increasinglydiverse, with a wide variety of sensor, GIS, imagery and graph data arising in cities. To address these chal-lenges, urban informatics requires development of advanced data-management approaches, analysis methods,and visualization techniques. It also provides an opportunity to confront the “Variety” axis of Big Data head on.
