An Introduction to Open Source Geospatial Science for Urban Studies
Nowadays, governments from around the world and stakeholders from the business sector both participate to and promote open geospatial science. Governments increasingly provide free access to various types of geospatial data as they realize its potential to foster economic, social, urban and environmental opportunities. Concrete projects based on open geospatial data are now having significant and measurable impact on communities, economy, environment, health, and transportation, only to name a few areas. Hereby, we focus on the benefits that open geospatial science in general, and open geospatial data in particular bring to urban studies with particular focus on transportation and smart city analytics projects. This chapter introduces up-to-date practical studies that address some concrete challenges within the proposed domain, and ends with some remarks on the topic.
