SIGSPATIAL Special Newsletter July 2018 (Volume 10, Number 2): Urban Analytics and Mobility – Part 2
This July 2018 continues to feature a special topic of “Urban Analytics and Mobility”. The choice for this topic follows the rapid trend of the last years: The UrbanGIS’17 workshop at SIGSPATIAL 2017 was one of the largest workshops, many papers and research sessions focused on related topics, and the SIGSPATIAL 2017 keynote by Bryan Mistele, Founder & CEO of INRIX, discussed many future challenges in urban environments.
