Street life and pedestrian activities in smart cities: opportunities and challenges for computational urban science

Abstract Ongoing efforts among cities to reinvigorate streets have encouraged innovations in using smart data to understand pedestrian activities. Empowered by advanced algorithms and computation power, data from smartphone applications, GPS devices, video cameras, and other forms of sensors can hel...
