Data-centric Regenerative Built Environment (eBook, ePUB)

"Sustainable built environment is one of, if not, the biggest challenges for humankind in our time. Big data offers a unique opportunity to collect and analyse information relating to our urban land use, transportation and traffic, environmental concerns and social issues. Potentially, with access to a mass of data on a scale not previously available, we can optimise the ways our cities function to deliver economic, social and environmental sustainability. In this innovative book, Dr Saeed Banihashemi and Sepideh Zarepour Sohi show us how this regenerative built environment might be achieved through big data technologies and applications."
