The Urban Observatory

The Urban Observatory platform launches at ESRI’s International User Conference to compare and contrast crowd-sourced urban data.

Pablo Mendez (University of British Columbia) offers an analytical writeup to accompany the most recent contribution to the Atlas data: a series of 69 maps covering 23 cities visualizing 3 sets of socioeconomic data themes. The result: a compelling set of data-rich maps showing interesting and surprising patterns of suburbanism across Canada.
