Urban Analytics

---

Urban analytics is the multi-disciplinary area of research concerned with using
new and emerging forms of data, alongside computational and statistical tech­
miques, to study cities. However, the use of data and statistics in the study of cities
is nothing new, since at least the 1890s people have been systematically collecting
data about cities and presenting statistics in an effort to influence urban policy
(e.g. Hull House in Chicago or Charles Booth in London). However, what is
new is the quantity and variety of data available about cities. We simply have more,
and more kinds of data at our disposal, than we have had at any point in history
What can, or should one do with all of this data? Our aim in writing this text­
book was to help students and professionals navigate this question. Although there
are many existing textbooks concerned with cities and urban systems, many
eschew qualitative perspectives, and relatively few implement the types of analytic
frameworks that allow fruitful engagement with new forms of data applied to
investigate substantive urban research problems.
