Urban Analyst
What is this?
Urban Analyst is a platform for interactive visualisation of the properties of cities, including transport systems and socio-demographic conditions. The platform offers
- a “Summarise” page that provides brief descriptions of the properties of any chosen city, and identifies the best potential city for transformation.
- a “Compare” view that compares the properties of different cities in terms of each variable measured by Urban Analyst.
- a “Map” view, to enable various properties of individual cities to be visualised as interactive maps, and
- a “Transform” view that enables cities to be transformed to become like any other city.
Full details are provided in the documentation.
