Innovation and Data in Smart Cities
This chapter explores the innovation dimension as a way of seeing through smart cities in relation to data and associated creative uses and approaches. Imagination, collaboration, participation and other elements emerge from the review of the research literature for innovation and data in smart cities, along with associated challenges and opportunities. A conceptual framework for innovation and data in smart cities is developed and operationalized for use in this chapter. Through an exploratory case study approach combined with an explanatory correlational design, the experiences of a wide variety of people across multiple cities in multiple countries are explored. Assessments for innovation, using creative opportunities as a proxy, are conducted and then correlated with data related elements such as meaningfulness and access to public data to learn more about relationships and factors contributing to success in smart cities and regions. Of note in this chapter is the importance of infrastructures in support of innovation.
