Download: The GovInsider Guide to Urban Design and Smart Cities

By GovInsider and Esri

In the first of our new series, we gather fascinating stories on how cities around the world are using data and geospatial analytics in urban planning.

By 2050, cities across the world will be home to two-thirds of the global population. More and more people are flocking to urban centres, in search of better opportunities and lives. City leaders are under pressure to house everyone, keep them safe, and improve their quality of life.

Over the past few years, GovInsider has interviewed some of these leaders on their smart city journey. This guide curates stories of how governments are using data and artificial intelligence to design their cities, make them inclusive and improve sustainability.

These stories include:
  • How Singapore’s urban planners are using commuter data to bring work closer to people’s homes
  • How Seoul is using data to give citizens a peek into the activities of the Mayor’s Office
  • How New York City used AI and geospatial analytics to determine the source of an outbreak
