Fall 2024 · UEP 0237 · Tufts University · 3 credits · Undergraduate

With rapid urbanization, the development of data science, machine learning, and the emergence of ubiquitous sensing technologies, cities have become the foci of multidisciplinary investigations. This course is designed to equip future planners, data scientists, and policymakers with computational methods and tools to acquire new urban data from social media, crowdsourcing, and sensor networks, and use them to represent, understand, and visualize complex urban environments in comprehensive and scientific ways, to make informed decisions to design, plan and manage smart, sustainable and resilient cities. Prerequisites: (1) Intro to GIS; (2) UEP Coding Bootcamp (offered in Su/Fall/Spring) or an equivalent Data Lab Workshop.
