Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the ever-evolving landscape of urban development, the integration of smart technologies into city and building management has become paramount. The upcoming Special Issue on aims to explore the forefront of urban sensing, spatial data science and GeoAI, highlighting innovations that are transforming how we collect, analyze and apply data to create more efficient, sustainable and livable urban environments.
This issue invites original research and comprehensive reviews on cutting-edge methodologies and applications of technologies such as big data analytics, LiDAR and Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) in the context of smart cities. Contributions may include, but are not limited to, advancements in urban data collection, high-precision mapping, real-time monitoring and the integration of spatial data into city planning and management. Through a multidisciplinary lens, we seek to delve into how these technologies can lead to smarter decision-making and optimized resource allocation, thereby enhancing the quality of life for urban residents. Authors are encouraged to submit works that not only demonstrate technological advancements, but also consider the societal, urban and environmental implications of these integrated systems.
